March 10, 2009: the basement tapes
There are a lot of great references to basements in rock music.
I can still remember buying a bootleg version of Bob Dylan’s Basement Tapes on vinyl many years ago. It was a double album in a white cover- with no label- the Great White Wonder, sold in a now defunct record store on Granville Street in Vancouver in 1969- what ever happened to that album? Columbia released it a few years later as the Basement Tapes.

Then there’s the Ramones I Don’t Want To Go Down Into the Basement and of course Basement Jaxx.
Don’t get me started.
