Murder of Music

Perhaps there is nothing more classic than a rocker with impeccable ability to write music and a classic hairdo.  While the hairdos are usually reserved for the 80's rockers, Adam Duritz of the Counting Crows does make my list of most unique hairstyles for frontmans.  You really cant beat the lyrics on their songs on their first two albums which I maintain are their best for sure.

Despite their success of Mr. Jones and Around Here on the album August and Everything After two of the best tracks really didnt make as much radio plan and didnt sell as well.  One is Sullivan Street which is more of an electric acoustic set and the other is a classic crows sound rock song.  It also includes in the lyrics of the third verse the reason for their name from a divination rhyme.  I dont have a music video of it because I dont recall one even being filmed so here is a youtube vid with a band photo on tour for support of their live album and the audio recorded with it.
