Way back when I won a stereo in a contest. It had an 8 Track tape player for which I had no tapes. My Ex-Marine buddy Billy gave me two tapes he had that were duplicates. Led Zeppelin II and Merle Haggard. I knew nothing about Country Music and even less about Merle Haggard.
I was to come to know Merle Haggard's music well. Years later I had a band that played the Air Force NCO Club Saturday Dance every few weeks. This was one of their most requested songs. someone told me before the first time we played there, "You learn "Silver Wings" by Merle Haggard and you'll make those Air Force boys happy." He was right. Before it all was over we had almost turned into a Country Music/Rockabilly Band.
And now, for something completely different...

All the Blink 182 puts me in mind of some proper punk rock.
Conflict are legendary and this is in my opinion thier finest song still going strong after 30 odd years
