So I was taking a little tour through music past last week and had forgotten how much I like some bands.
Better than Ezra -- My fondest music memory of this is Julie singing "King of New Orleans" at random moments. She would just be walking with you across campus and sing a line or two. It was the voice of someone who loved life and experienced it openly and without questions. Plus, the lead singers voice is pop-ish but had a great depth to it.
Crash Test Dummies -- Ok, confession, I still listen to some of these songs on a very regular basis. "Afternoons and Coffeespoons" is my favorite -- especially after hearing Common Rotation cover it at the living room concert.
Jill Sobule -- The album with "I kissed a girl" is better than I remember. "Supermodel" is just a fun song. "Karen by night" is also a great story song.
What are some old albums you would like to resurrect from your past?

I had this same thought last year...here's my list. I forgot all about Better Than Ezra though...
Welcome Brian! Nice list. I have to admit, as cheese as it may be, I have a soft spot for the Gin Blossoms. When the first album came out, I proclaimed them my favorite band of all time. What did I know? It was only like a year or two after I saw Debbie Gibson in concert. With my mom. Wearing white denim and a pink neon oversized button down, a la Fresh Prince of Bel Air.
