Roadrunner Pedantry Watch: The single and album versions of Roadrunner were recorded a couple years apart. And there were two more recorded in between with Kim Fowley (excuse my french) that came out several years later. All sound a bit (or a lot) different, different lengths, instruments, etc. And those were just the four versions that were done before the first album. For that alone, it should be the state song.

@Matt: Even back in Latin (where Spanish etc. come from) "day" and "night" were a different gender (respectively, male and female) than you'd think by looking at their endings. C'est la vie!

"Of the various rock and metal bands out there today that strive to take us on a DeLorean ride back to the time of handle-bar mustaches and full-on bush, Hot Lunch and their self-titled debut album are certainly some of the most authentic that I’ve come across. The record’s 10 tracks are alive with the vibes and tones of rock-n-roll’s pinnacle. From high-energy, driving rockabilly to progy, stoner grooves, these guys put out an album that will make a great birthday gift for you or your dad.
