I Rock S*** Like Ronnie Dio

I'll keep it simple at this late hour. I'll post the full version of a song that was on the great Best of Bootie 2007 CD download. I say "full" as on the 2007 CD, they cut out the last half minute or so of the song (which is an instrumental, but still), so I figured I should direct you to my upload of the original.

The tune I'm talking about is More Than On Point, by DJ Topcat, combining Boston's More Than A Feeling with House of Pain's On Point. Yep, an obvious connection with both groups sharing the same hometown. It becomes a very catchy song, as the riff on More Than A Feeling is a classic. Whether or not the riff is borrowed from Louie Louie (or likewise, borrowed by Kurt Cobain for Smells Like Teen Spirit) is up for debate, but no matter the case, I'm glad it was used, and it turned out to be a great mashup.

Now, there is a 2008 version of the song on Topcat's website. Go ahead and download it. But, note that it's different from what he released last year; 2008 is fine, but I prefer the original one just a little bit more, so here it is.

Like I said on my other blog, I'll be back on the 30th, due to me being preoccupied with a pair of great wrestling shows this upcoming weekend.
