Someone mentioned to me once that they thought ‘the money track’ on albums was usually Track 3. A cursory glance over some albums suggest that that may be the case. But there is something about the thrill of dropping the stylus and having Track 1 jump out the gates with all its bluster and swag. A great opening track has always done wonders to set me itchin’, twitchin’ and jumpin’! For those playing at home, here are some of my favourite Side 1 Track1’s. From Phoebe Snow to Pere Ubu to The Cars to Rose Royce, a great opening song doesn’t discriminate in my digs.
