Top 10 Songs Chosen By The Mercenaries




  There's been some great releases in 2016 but even though we're now into November, there's still more to come. One of the most eagerly awaited new albums (Rocky Road) is out in a few days (Nov 11th), it's by Paris' The Mercenaries and if the reaction to the couple of songs I played on the Just Some Punk Songs show is anything to go by, it'll go down a storm. You can check out a song from it on Bandcamp : https://the-mercenaries.bandcamp.com/releases   and there was a different song on here last month : http://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.co.uk/2016/10/the-mercenaries-another-night.html

  They're looking to get over to England to play a few gigs so if anyone can help them out please could you contact them ; https://www.facebook.com/themercenariespunkrock/

  Knowing how popular they're proving to be I asked them for a top 10 list and am very grateful for the following ( *their number 2 choice was for Medeski Martin and Wood live album, I didn't know which album that was or which song they wanted so I tried to take a guess *) :

 1)  THE AGGROLITES - Free Time




 2) MEDESKI MARTIN AND WOOD - Hey Joe (live)






 3)  RANCID - Cash, Culture And Violence



 4) COURTNEY LOVE - Mono



 5) MOTORHEAD - Ace Of Spades



 6) CHOKING VICTIM - In My Grave



 7)  TRANSPLANTS - Sad But True



8)  THE CLASH - Revolution Rock



 9) THE SPECIALS - Why



10) TOOTS AND THE MAYTALS - 54-46 Was My Number
