Man, now you're talking MY language! I love Social D, and I am still pissed at myself for BEING AT Warped Tour '97 but not taking the time to check them out when they were on stage.
But as much as I like Social Distortion, I dig Mike Ness' solo work even more. "Cheating At Solitaire" is one of my all-time favorite albums, and I like "Under the Influences" a lot too. Just pulls together all sorts of great American music, from country-Western to folk to punk rock. I love every damn note on those two CDs.
I'm also a huge fan of '50s rock, instrumental surf music, swing (including all those late-'90s ex-punker swing bands), and anything pulling all those styles together.
