a) Given:
\n1) you have a music collection
\n2) you have a device capable of choosing random selection from 1
\n3) you have access to 2
\nb) Enable the device, 2
\nc) Allow it to choose 5 (five) songs at random
\nd) list each song here and
\ne) describe it so that we may learn from you<\/p>\n

For example: <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Albert King + SRV - Matchbox Blues (from \"In Session\")<\/a>. Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert King got together in the studio and made a record (and the whole thing's on video, too). This is from that session. It's classic \"master and student\" stuff; King is as good as ever, but SRV shows that he's not only mastered King's moves but has super-charged them with Hendrix-style fire. SRV is humble throughout, but King is clearly impressed.\n
  2. Apples In Stereo - Dots 1-2-3<\/a>. A snappy little thing from an under-appreciated band. Space-age retro-psychedelic, but still very early 90's. This was a favorite for a month or so, back in the day.\n
  3. New Pornographers - Broken Breads<\/a>. Never knew the name of this one - it's always been the \"I Don't Wanna\" song, to me. Like most NP songs, there are a lot of gear changes and tight corners, so listening is a bit of holding on while they flit around. A few of the sections don't really work for me, so I've never completely loved this one. Still, it's un-terrible, and works in context on the album.\n
  4. Andrew Bird - Some Of These Days<\/a>. A classic (very) early jazz tune. This is from his Bowl Of Fire album \"Thrills\", which is full of these early jazz standards. The version on the record is about 3:40; but, after a short silence, there's another five minutes of a smokin early-jazz instrumental which I can't identify and isn't credited. Very cool.\n
  5. Bad Company - Rock Steady<\/a>. Straight-up 70's rock. The lyrics are a little meh, here and there. But the song's simple, non-nonsense vibe is solid. And the chorus is pure Paul Rodgers.\n<\/ol>\n
