2 Matt Pond PA : People Have A Way
THIS HAS AN OLD SCHOOL VIBE. I THINK IT'S MOSTLY JUST THE POUNDING PIANO. I COULDN'T DECIDE BETWEEN THIS ONE OR "MIND'S EYE" OFF THE NEW JOSH RITTER ALBUM. BUT "MIND'S EYE" IS THE SAME CHORD PROGRESSION AS "DON'T MAKE ME A TARGET" WITH THE POUNDING PIANO OF "PEOPLE HAVE A WAY."

I played the Black Keys for my Dad and he got so pissed off at how much of a ripoff they were of Hendrix. Not that I dislike them, but his sentiment is reminiscent of your theme.

Also, good picks for the tape. It works.
