1) Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac by Fleetwood Mac
This is a great collection of some of the early work by Fleetwood Mac when it was a blues band. Pre Stevie Nick and with three great guitarists!

2) Loaded by The Velvet Underground
This would be their more commercial successful album. I still enjoy The Velvet Underground and Nico but Loaded is great start to finish it also has amazing writing. It's great early New York rock/psychedelic.

3) Vs. God, More Songs About Girlfriends And Bubblegum, This Sh!t Is Genius and Midwestern Songs Of The Americas (any of these albums) by Dillinger Four. Still some one of my favorite Punk bands. Funny, witty, smart as hell lyrics and a great band to see live.

4) Minx by Leatherface (runner up albums are The Last, Mush, and Cherry Knowle)
I was lucky to enough to see this British Punk band years ago and still enjoy their music today. The lead singer Frankie Stubbs has an unusual voice, it's like having Tom Waits singing punk rock.

Dave, you should check out the Cowboy Junkies doing Sweet Jane.
The punk bands you like aren't too hardcore. There's another punk band called the Rugburns that I used to enjoy. They're kind of a pop/punk hybrid. The stuff that's on youtube is basically the pop. What I could find, anyways. Their albums flesh out a lot funner.
Here's one that's a bit more what they're about. My carphone's on the pill.

yes and no. I was trying to find something to post from the bands.

I have a slew of punk music and was into for a lot of years. Everything from pre-punk, 77 punk, 80's hardcore and into the 90's with Lookout and the start of a lot of the pop punk. These are still some of my favorites along with Screeching Weasel/Riverdales.

Anything by Victoria Williams or Maia Sharp, both amazing singer songwriters.

Wonderful World by Victoria is a great interpretation of a classic.

There's a reason Bonnie Raitt loves Maia's work.

I would agree with that one, Scott, but the way they screw up one of the lovliest line in music on that same album, by changing Hank Williams' classic verse to "The silence of a falling star/Lights up a purple haze" makes me cringe each time I hear it.

Who the hell would fark with Hank Williams, I wanna know!
