Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

I used to dwell only in my underground hip hop world. I was buried knee deep in rare 12"'s and EP's from people nobody had ever heard of except me and the other 6 people who liked Porn Theatre Usher's. These days though I have been going way back to my earliest days of listening to music. Here are a couple of my all time favorites I could listen to at all times.
Below that is a random skate video of a dude you never heard of. You thought I wouldn't..

The Animals - House of the Rising Sun



The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter



The Who - My Generation - I think this song allowed me an open mind to punk rock and hardcore since the older generation never really knows what the kids like. Don't kid yourselves old people.



Operation Ivy - discovered a bit later when I got into skating but c'mon it's Operation Ivy. H-Street, Matt Hensley, wallet chains, 1991-1992.



Dan Drehobl - Think Video "Dedication" When I lived in SF Dan was our neighbor for few years. I've seen him do the most ridiculous shit. Switch hill bombs!

Is "don't kid yourself old people" an ironic statement? Because you are like, 100 years old.
