Kicks Getting Harder to Find

   Last night's scheduled entertainment was a rented movie 'A Birder's Guide to Everything'.  The best part of the movie came 4 minutes in.  It wasn't so much the story-line or cinematography that made the moment rather it was the following song.  

Okkervil River - Unless It's Kicks

  Next up a cover of a song first recorded by Paul Revere and the Raiders.

Flamin' Groovies -Kicks

   Lastly a song best known as the favorite song of BBC radio legend John Peel.
