The Goo Goo Dolls - Bitch (http://www.sendspace.com/file/jbun6w). From No Alternative (http://www.amazon.com/No-Alternative/dp/B0002WRGP8/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1216743171&sr=8-8), a benefit compilation from the early 90s... I think the money went to AIDS research. With your choice of two album covers and with a hidden Nirvana track. At a pawnshop near you. :-)

Robbie Fulks - White Man's Bourbon (http://www.sendspace.com/file/oyhh6e). From The Very Best of Robbie Fulks (http://www.amazon.com/Very-Best-Robbie-Fulks/dp/B000040O9X/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1216743411&sr=8-3), which isn't (and was never intended to be) a "greatest hits" collection. Instead, it was culled from Robbie's contributions to Bloodshot Comps... this one comes from Nashville, We Will Slice Your Putrid Cunt to Ribbons: Insurgent Country, Vol. 6, released in 1995. In an effort to explain my cryptic selling point from earlier, I share this blurb from the liner notes:
This modest contribution to the canon of amour exotique fell afoul of a few sensitive souls at the session who, after huffily demanding and horrifiedly perusing a lyric sheet, objected to being publicly associated with such a thing on the grounds that it plumbed new depths of bad taste. I think they were suffering from irony deafness (and maybe actual deafness, since the words, "God knows," are perfectly intelligible), but if you too take umbrage, I beg you to review American popular music starting with "Ubangi Stomp," "Mohawk Squaw," "Red Nightgown Blues," "Pickaninnies' Paradise," "Poor Chinese," "Darktown Strutters Ball," "Boll Weevil Blues," "Geisha Girl," and "Brown Sugar." Plus, what about that groove?
