Start Your iPods

There's a party in my mind...

  1. Tortoise - Swung From The Gutters
  2. Led Zeppelin - Nobody's Fault But Mine
  3. Adrian Belew - No Such Guitar
  4. Son Volt - Ten Second News
  5. Charlie Byrd & Stan Getz - Desafinado (45 version)
  6. Charlie Byrd & Stan Getz - Desafinado (album version)
  7. Sonic Youth - Massage The History
  8. The Kinks - Dedicated Follower Of Fashion
  9. King Crimson - Indiscipline
  10. Talking Heads - Memories Can't Wait (live)

... and I hope it never stops.

My iPod repeats itself when under stress ?

    Working from home on a Monday (for unfortunate reasons, viz. Ellen’s mom is in the hospital w/pneumonia, Ellen is with her dad, I am home with Sylvia) — get to listen to some music!

    1. Columbus Rag by Vassar Clemens
    2. “Intro” to the Boston Tea Party show, 12/30/69, The Grateful Dead. Just hope everyone’s good and relaxed, feeling ok, we’re gonna have a little fun.
    3. Monologue about Lars and THON, 3/14/97 show at the Knitting Factory, Robyn Hitchcock (introducing “Each of her Silver Wands.”) Lars feels this is the happiest he’s ever been…
    4. Get Up Off That Jazzophone by The Bubbling Over Five. Oh yeah.
    5. Ya Qalbi by Souad Massi
    6. Evil Hearted Woman by Blind Boy Fuller.
    7. I’m Head Over Heels In Love by Flatt and Scruggs
    8. Long Dong Silver by Denise LaSalle
    9. Old Joe’s Hitting the Jug by Stuff Smith and his Orchestra
    10. Valse de Vieux Molin by Laurie Hart

    Nice variety — fiddle, talk, blues (Piedmont — Fuller is local to your area I think), jazz, folk (French Canadian — I took a fiddling class with Hart a couple of years ago), funk, ragtime, country, mix tapes from Apostropher and from Dagger Aleph

    There is a bug in the iPod shuffle logic – if I have more than one version of a song and it comes up on a shuffle then my iPhone will insist on playing all of them in succession.

    So, Monday it is and my current Scrum story is blocked by the web store team *drums fingers on the desk*

    1. Echo & The Bunnymen – Never Stop (Discotheque).
    2. Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Heads Will Roll.
    3. Supergrass – Rough Knuckles.
    4. PiL – Warrior.
    5. A Flock Of Seagulls – Wishing (If I Had A Photograph Of You).
    6. Hope Of The States – Good Fight.
    7. David Bowie – Warszawa.
    8. Frankies Goes To Hollywood – Relax.
    9. R.E.M. – Zither.
    10. Wolfmother – Joker & The Thief.

    Chicken Tikka Masala.

    Thanks! Your post inspired me to rip some records that I’ve been meaning to for a while; my hard-disk-based music collection grew by several hours worth this afternoon. In particular I added some Gary Davis, some Muddy Waters, some Leonard Cohen, Dylan, Jefferson Airplane, Sonny Boy Williamson. And added album art for a lot of entries that were lacking it.
