The History Of Jop Part 15 aka In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

If it's Thursday, it must be 1994! The grip of alt.rock and hip-hop - mostly alt.rock - on the Pazz and Jop poll is close to total, and Anglophiles aren't carrying much weight. This does mean that we've got a lot of tracks to rate that never came near a Now album, though!

NINE ticks out of 27 songs.

I have such fond memories of nearly dying on an Ilford dance floor every time that track came on... *sigh*

I've got Offspring's hits album, and it's great for the first six songs, and nearly identical sounding for the final seven, with the seventh track ("Pretty Fly for a White Guy") providing the transition, the novelty track that's sorta halfway betwee great and so-what.

Smash is great! Lost it long ago, but I bet it's better overall than a greatest hits comp.
