Vaselines - Enter the Vaselines (Day 45)
The simple driving snare of 'Son of a Gun' starts off this compilation album beautifully. In 'You Think You're A Man', the singsong vocals of "Man.... Boy...." may be the best refrain ever. 'Molly's Lips' and 'Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam' are really good, but I
am not afraid to say that I like the Nirvana cover versions better. I definitely think the "Son of a Gun" EP is the strongest offering here, with the "Dying for It" EP in a close second, and the "Dum Dum" LP coming in third (they definitely got the sequencing of the track order correct).
