27. Jack Casady's "Dream Factor" and Bob Mould's "District Line"

The Casady CD is a revolving door of guest artists centered around Jack. One track...only one, "Sweden"...features the Grand MUTHA of all "supergroups"...

Fee Waybill from The Tubes on Vocals
Jack on bass
Warren "Govt Mule / Allman Bros" Haynes on lead guitar (left channel)
Jorma "Hot Tuna / Jefferson Airplane" Kaukonen on lead guitar (right channel)

The best part is that the song itself is a killer...Fee howls "Black smoke, grey sky, is all I see through frozen eyes" while Jorma and Warren have a dogfight on snarling, fuzzy, wah-wahed guitars.

Mould's "District Line" is classic Bob in the guitar-driven Sugar vein, with a little Husker Du aggression thrown in for good measure. Similar to his last CD "Body Of Song." He still flirts with the empty electronica of his earlier album "Modulate" on one track, "Shelter Me."
