Ain't No Way in the World

I have been reading the Gregg Allman autobiography and 

the the backstories to such great songs have been epic!

$5.98

The small cassette blew my mind, and really, in 1988 when Cory Rucobo played it in the Toyota Celica Supra he picked me up in, I wouldn't have known the difference if was Metallica or covers.
What I did know, was that it was fucking A legit.  As a punk rock girl in in the late 80s, I was present for a pretty cool swapping of the tunes. The metal guys were into the Misfits and us, punk rock kids were now into Metallica.  We had a middle ground.
Ya ya, as a old lady now, I see all the context, but it was different in late 80s midwest, where you stayed in your lane musically speaking.

I like to take note, now, of what holds water.  I remember playing The Misfits for my dad, an hardcore blues guitarist, thinking he'd like it because it wasn't the Dayglo Abortions. And well, he kinda gave me a "nice try" pat on the head.  I was pissed then, and now when I go back and listen, well, youre right pop, it doesn't hold water.  Its crap musicianship.  You better think about it baby.

I would not have played Garage Days for my pop, it was too fast, I thought, then....

Hind sight tho, that EP holds the water. and its great evidence of sometimes the cover if better than th OG.
