No lie, #EastSideStory remains one of the best bootleg compilation series EVER. In my book, it beats out #KilledByDeath (punk rarity ≠ punk quality) while running neck and neck with #BornBad (Lux & Ivy = great taste). But it's most perfect on #8Track: all those teenage tales of broken hearts, the desperate, welling tears, and of course the soulful falsettos ringing out from your car stereo as you cruise the blvd-of-your-memory one last time.

The second of the day’s tunes by Squeeze, this time from on deck and one of the few to feature Paul Carrack on vocal for some reason; I always thought he was a good singer going back to his days with Ace.
