March is upon us and Portland, the City of Roses, is trying desperately to shake the fading Winter chill. With that in mind, we get back on track with our Spectrum of Sound series. This week’s color of choice is red and for all you science types out there, that’s about 6500 on the Angstrom dial. See what we found after the turn.
Circle Jerks – Red Tape
Bad Brains – Red Bone in the City
Mission of Burma – Red
Minor Threat – Seeing Red
Replacements – Takin’ a Ride, Staples in Her Stomach & Careless (P.S.: Unable to locate a version of Red, Red Wine)
Red Cross/Redd Kross – Somebody Wants to Love You
Red Rockers – China
Red Hot Chili Peppers – Suck My Kiss (NOTE: NOT LITTLE KID FRIENDLY)
King Crimson – Frame by Frame
Blonde Redhead – 23
Blonde Redhead – Equus
Weezer (Red Album) – Troublemaker
Tommy was 12 years old the night he played that Replacements gig at the Entry! Precocious bastard- that kid rules and needs a book written about him, maybe that’s the title. He used to walk around with ankle weights on all day so he could jump higher at the gig! Some of the best days of my life where when I was too young to be in the club (16-17) and flashing glances at the college gurls.
Really Red!
What, no Sammy Haggar?
