Hogan's Fountain "Lonesome Ballad of Robert Zimmerman"
Released in 2009

It still holds up as a brilliant song. In fact, it's a great example of why I think there was more great music being made in the 2000s than anyone would believe. The hardest thing was finding it.

Two bands that likely would be on the all-time Dirty Jersey list are Gigantic, a Jersey Shore trio inspired by the primal pop of The Pixies and Nirvana, and Alternative Tentacles recording act Buzzkill, also a trio from the days when New Brunswick was the state's best music scene.
