Dig into the news, start thinking about your bills, and generally looking at the long week ahead can be a daunting process. It can make one want to give up or maybe even step in front of a speeding train. Don’t do it. Instead, press play and let this carefully crafted calmative ease ya’ working week blues.

The Mullet Love series was born out of frustration with the fare on commercial classic rock radio, where one might assume staples like Led Zeppelin, The Who and The Rolling Stones recorded perhaps a dozen cuts and that there’s no modern equivalents with music ready, willing and able to go toe-to-toe with the established pillars of the genre. Poppycock, Dirty Impound cries, and here’s the proof, where we mix a spoonful of the familiar with lesser knowns, deep cuts, and vintage coolness overlooked by what’s left of FM stations. Go toke up in the parking lot on your lunch break and then blast this through the afternoon to get through this working week Monday.

Sometimes what you want from life isn’t sophistication. Sometimes you just want somebody to reach down between your legs and ease the seat back. The Mullet Love series is this helping hand, mingling classic rock royalty with bands you’re probably encountering for the first time that might spontaneously give you Tennessee Top Hat. This is a celebration of struttin’, riff rich rock that despite what they tell us is alive and well today. It almost goes without saying, PLAY LOUD!

Nothing too fancy this time, just the usual attempt to get the past to talk to the present and the present to talk to the past. And maybe offer a few tasty morsels to stick in your philosophical and mental bindle for the road ahead. Also, this sounds nice when you’re high.

It’s been a hard week in America. Most of them are but the national psyche took some concussive blows in the past seven days. It’s hard to keep pulling one’s self up from the mat after so much ugliness, violence and disappointment – not to mention all the travails and small travesties of our private lives this past week – but it’s important to keep believing in things larger than ourselves, stronger than a single stretch of days, more enduring than a news cycle or political campaign. We gotta find faith in one another or even something more skyward, and say, like Mott does on this mix, “God ain’t jive.” Dreams and love and other connections and joys – big, tiny and otherwise – remain alive and well despite the black wave that swept through recently. These are songs to keep us company as we claw our way to the light, together despite the fog and fear that makes us seem so distant at times.

What starts feisty and then gives way to a romantically tinged, vaguely beatific melancholy? This mix! As memory serves, the bubble hash had a calming but bittersweet effect on the selections as this one progressed. We begin with a great one from Sam Champion, a now-defunct NYC band the Impound would really love to see reignite. Check out their last album, Heavenly Bender (2008), and you can send us flowers in thanks later.

Waking from a dream, we find the world as we left it, a muddle of bills, plans and missteps. The panic patter begins in our chest and our still drowsy brain sloshes to attention. Take a breath, push this rising stress aside. Know you are doing just fine. Someone and perhaps more someones than you realize think you are beautiful and cool and lots of other good things. Let that take the place of the panic. See if you can make this Sunday bright for you and don’t be surprised if your residual glow doesn’t make others shine a bit too.
