Super CD 2 2004 - JH Review

Remember when I posted that Super CD 3 was my favorite? I take it back. This one is my new favorite Super CD. S3 was fun, but this one.. it's like FUN at Disney World. I can't take it out of my car CD player. I babysit every morning and take two kids to school. Instead of ever listening to crappy "kid music," I make them listen to what I like. Earlier this week, I was jammin' to S2 and I looked in my mirror and saw D dancing to The Redwalls "Colorful Revolution." My only choice was to turn it up and drive dance with him. He agreed that it was a great song. He also really like "Closer" because we kept dancing. And there's no other way to face a dreary Wednesday morning. The feel of this playlist is in my comments below, JAM-TASTIC! This is a playlist that doesn't have a bad song on it. 

Other than The Redwalls, I really liked the Freddy Jones stuff and the Virginia Coalition. Both were unfamiliar to me, but great songs. I also loved the Dispatch songs. Like most people I've heard The General, but I had not spent any time listening to any of their other songs. I am clearly missing out. 

If I had to pick a least favorite song, it would have been Howie Day's "Collide." I've heard it before and on a playlist this good, I "ain't got time for that." It is always a good sign of a playlist when the "worst" song is just the song you've already heard. Another point to note is while this is from 2004, the songs are timeless. If you find the Super CDs daunting, start here. You will not be disappointed!

  2. I'm glad you enjoyed it Jackie. Virginia Coalition is one of my favorite bands, even though they are relatively unknown. I just posted The Redwalls first CD, Universal Blues, which is a really good CD. I posted the Throwback CD too. I'll post some Dispatch CD's and Virginia Coalition (VACO) later on when you are ready. I released this CD just as Collide started to play on the radio, which was kind of disappointing. Still a good song.
