Tunesday is Gangster day

February 27th, 2006 by Chiel Montagne

Hank:
Everybody who knows this movie agrees with me that a gangster is no gangster without a Pit Bull Terrier.
Updeet: What is a gangster tunesday without the classic love song Gangster of Love.

Rams:
Time for some nice dutch (of course) gangsta songs:
De dievenwagen
In jailhouse
Kleine crimineel
Brief aan de gevangenis
En èkkes toch nog ‘n Carnavalsupdeejt hier vanuit Kruikenstad:
Een schôn nummerke van Ferry van de Zaande :
Ik zèè zô zat as n pinneke’ (WMV-alert)

Nodog:
Some fucking brilliant reggae tunes: Lloyd Parks - Mafia + 80’s version by the Dub Syndicate. As if these aren’t good enough here’s King Tubby dubbing The Maffia Allstars + an even more outrageous overdubbed version by Bill Laswell.
Finally the obvious header in for me of course: Mark Stewart & The Maffia. Not to be found on any of his albums: Radio Freedom.

*–*:
“I make you an offer you can’t refuse”
“I’m your mother. I’m your daddy. I’m that nigger in the alley”
“Sleep with the big gun undah me pillah”

Chocotofferts:
First the quickies, gangster rappers (open dirs) , few hours of mob interviews. 15 Minute German Maffia Pizza Razzia. A German Cosa Nostra and an Instrumental Yakuza finish for me.

Amazone:
Wannabe (being @ Habbo Hotel?!) gangster Lady Sovereign - Vertically Challenged. Due to computer failure just a link, no download.

InvertedPantsMan:
Gangsters in general, some musical criminals and the biggest Crook of them all =]
bonus trek: a mellowere koffer for those that did not like *–*’s Godfather madness

Braad:
First a little tune by Pavement: Gangsters & Pranksters. But this mafia tunesday wouldn’t be complete without Ole’ Blue Eyes: here’s a live version of One for my baby and one more for the road

Mikhail:
Alice in Chains steent, ?? ?????? ????!!
The Sex Pistols with “God save the Queen” , and The Pointer Sisters.

?????!!

goodie2shoes:
Theme from The Sopranos: Got yourself a gun

Sergeant Baker:
Two tracks by The Transplants:

  1. about their favourite toys (”Diamonds and guns”)
  2. about themselves (”Gangsters and Thugs”)

Maks:
There’s only one self-declared OG of course: Ice Motherfuckin’ T. Bitch!
1. Copkiller
2. Smoked Pork
3. Body Count’s In The House

ape:
Die Toten Hosen: Bonnie und Clyde
