played almost 700 dates and sold
more than 10,000 records.
“We’re real proud of how far we
got on our own,” said vocalist/gui
tarist Chris Sullivan. “And maybe
if there were an extra 20 hours in a
day, we’d keep doing it all our
selves, but science hasn’t taken us
there yet.”
“Magnetic,” is a strong collec
tion of pop hooks and harmonies
that will catch the ear of most lis
teners with its feel-good sound,
rhythmic sway and suave lyrics.
Wakeland plays tonight at the
Ranch Bowl, 1600 S. 72nd St., with
Gwen Mars and Maids of Gravity.
The show starts about 9:30, and
tickets are $5.

rl Music Reviews^
“Friends”
Various Artists
Reprise
Grade: B+
From B-sides that you may have
missed the first time around to
unreleased songs from classic art
ists — including covers of songs
you probably haven’t heard in a
while — the “Friends” soundtrack
is a veritable plethora of music.
The markdown on the album is
because The Rembrandts’ “I’ll Be
There For You” is played twice, the
short version at the beginning and
the long version at the end.
Lou Reed contributes a new
song, his first new piece of work '
since 1992’s “Magic & Loss.” It’s
a beautiful, bitter ballad from the
master of street poetry.
The other eagerly awaited new
track is “Stain Yer Blood” by Paul
Westerberg, a song that does not
disappoint.
The CD also features covers of
the Beach Boys’ “In My Room” by
Grant Lee Buffalo, Juice Newton’s
“Angel of the Morning” by the Pre-'
tenders, and Jonathan Edwards’
“Sunshine,” also by Paul
Westerberg.
Throw in some B-sides—“1 Go
Blind” by Hootie & the Blowfish
and “It’s a Free World Baby” by
R.E.M., both of which are good
songs.
The final product is a great col
lection of songs worth the price of
the CD, whether you’re a “Friends”
fan or not.
