There aren’t many records that I would buy over and over again.  Caedmon’s Call’s Self Titled record from 1997, however is one that I’d have no problem buying a new copy ever year for the rest of my life.  I know that seems like a weird way to say that I really like this record, but that’s it. It’s a brilliant record and if somehow once a year my copy vanished, I’d buy it new every single time.

And here’s the thing. Every song on the record is solid, but there’s one tucked in there called “Standing Up For Nothing” that is easily one of my favorite songs they have ever done.  The lyrics are ridiculous. I’m still a little unclear about the whole “Stupid Kid” song, and maybe someday I’ll have the opportunity to ask about that one, but I’m just going to say it.

If you don’t have this record, you are missing out on greatness.

Yep, that’s it.

Now, I just looked on iTunes and it doesn’t look like you can get it there, but I’m guessing if we make a big enough of a ruckus on here and on Twitter / Facebook we can remedy that pretty quickly.

Who’s got it?  Who needs it?
