Wanted to include a quick photo and link to an album from our trip to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Awesome. All Unincorporated reader/listeners are encouraged to come with next time.
Well, the Steelers did it in MI inducing fashion. This prompted us here at the Unincorporated to put together a mix of famous artists from the Burgh. However, it was much more difficult than we planned. Not that there are not some great songs by great artists, but let's say at this point they are a lot less famous than James Harrison (or even Jeff Reed for that matter).

Math rock. Is that anything like optics rock?
6) Lightnin' Strikes:Lou Christie
Enjoy this oldie. Then listen/read lyrics. Wait, what is this song about?

Embodies Pittsburgh's great Jazz tradition.

Stephen Foster classic.
10) Leaving On A Jet Plane:Me First And The Gimme Gimmes
NO, not John Denver, but the lead singer of this quirky (gimmicky?) cover band.
11) Five O'Clock World:The Vogues
We love oldies at Punk' N Center.
12) Pittsburgh:The Lemonheads
No this band's not from the burgh, but this song is called Pittsburgh, and so a fitting close. "You might find, your baby Frankenstein"
Enjoy.
