Soul Kitchen. Break On Through. Back Door Man.  All on one reco...

I pretty much ignored this album much like any other Green Day album except for the sports bar songs that get involuntarily heard while out and about....

Pleasant, MI Time it took to sell: 1 year Where and When Bought: facebook marketplace $2 lot Gwiz-gau Letter Grade: B+ Sad To See It Go: No While not as monumental start to finish as Toys In The Attic or Rocks, Draw The Line the album has my singular favorite song of the band, the title track.  It also has "KIngs And Queens" which I had on a B-side of the " Come Together " cover as a kid from their appearance in Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.  It also has "Sight For Sore Eyes" which made it ...
