Welly welly well, me lewdies. What does the iPod vareet for us this sleepy-weepy Monday? No pop-disk, this time, o no no no. Today, it drops a little of the old Ludwig Van to start the week real horrorshow like. Righty right.\n<li>David Rawlings Machine - I Pity The Poor Immigrant (recorded by me, live at the Cats Cradle). As with most Dylan songs, I like it better when someone else plays it.<br \/>\n <div style=\"color:red;font-weight:bold;\">Compact Audio Player Error!

It has a slightly melancholy, lyrical, introspective, meandering melody - very Bill Evans-ish - but Haynes' drumming keeps it all sharp. Good stuff.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DlFuXwAGURw\">Faces - Three Button Hand Me Down<\/a>. Which is essentially \"Some Kind Of Wonderful\" with new lyrics, and an extended outro. But, at least they chose a good song to rip off!\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ePMvgRGm73U\">Charles Mingus - Boogie Stop Shuffle<\/a>. Well alright, it's a jazz morning. This here's a quick and snappy number. It's got a super-catchy melody that sounds like it would be perfect as the theme to a 60's super-hero show.\n<\/ol>\n<p>OK?
