Song(s) of the Day # 325 Ex Hex

 
Ex Hex seem to inhabit a place where it's always somewhere between 1978 and 1979. Not a bad place to be alongside the other great moments in Pop history 1966 to 1967 and 1972 to 1973. Sorry to be so reactionary but nowhere else has come close. Oh all right, perhaps the Fifties! 1980 to '81? Anyway, their debut album, Rips, released earlier this year, sounds like a blast!
 
 
This third selection judiciously rips off Sweet Jane, Crimson & Clover and My Sharona during the course of its three minutes. Well why not!
