Little more CtD, because they rock. |
The Weakerthans is just one of the those bands that grow on you. John K Sampson's lyrics are a real treat.
This song is about a bus driver who has to constantly drive by the house where he and his ex used to live. "this part of the day bewilders me..." |
The Housemartins - Caravan of Love
reminds me of times that seem to be less turbulent but yet had their own turbulence... |
The Housemartins were one of the most overlooked bands of the 80s. Good share, cyn.
I added Twilight Singers - Bonnie Brae. Great band. Great song. |
Cursive - The Recluse
I need to diversify and expand my musicology. I have but an intimate knowledge of less than 700 songs at the moment, so I will add this one for you all since I discovered it just now. |
Sir rabbit sir..that is a something I will listen more to.
I chose Moby- Extremes Ways...for the... |
House of the Rising Sun - Jerry Garcia, Dave Grisman and Tony Rice
|
A Boy Named Sue - Johnny Cash
written by Shel Silverstein.... |
"Rocky Raccoon" - The Beatles
Chosen for its slightly stronger storytelling than the average Beatles song. |
Johnny Cash - The Man Who Couldn't Cry
...this song really gets to me...in so many ways |
I find it interesting that mixedmedia would class House of the Rising Sun as country. That interpretation does have a definite country influence, but I would still call it blues.
In the spirit of that, I thought we could do with some Muddy Waters. |
Quote:
And it is a take on the song done in the traditional vein...not so much country, but I was taking the short cut. |
Keeping on with the blues. What better artist for the "HollaWalla" than Howlin' Wolf?
|
Screamin' Jay Hawkins - I put a spell on you.
I love Screamin' Jay... |
a little bit of mississipi fred mcdowell to keep the blues thing rolling.
i love mississippi fred... |
I debated Albert King or Mississippi John Hurt. Al won in the end for having more soul.
|
Etta James - I'm Gonna Take What He's Got
...you're not gonna find much more soul no where, no how than Etta James :) |
I couldn't decide what vein to follow... so I offer
Dread Zepplin - Stairway to Heaven a little reggae, rock, and Elvis i wanted to thank you all for contributing to this thread... these music threads have really gotten me back into music in such a nice broad range. Thank you! |
huh...nice: and i was still in a blues kinda head, so there's a muddy waters classic next.
cool thread, cyn. interesting playlist too. the collective mind is smarter. |
Mamas and the Papas, it's monday...trying to be upbeat to start the week.
|
Monday Morning by Fleetwood Mac
*************************** Frank Zappa & Captain Beefheart - Muffin Man |
Frank Zappa + Moon Unit - Valley Girl
gag me with a spoon! |
Muffin Man is one of my favourite Zappa tunes. It's so absurd.
Frank Zappa - My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama |
Guru w/ Erikah Badu - Plenty.
I was a huge fan of Guru's Jazzmatazz projects. This is from his 3rd release. Amazing vocals and such a seamless blend of jazz and hip hop. |
o yeah--i forgot to write down here that i put up a track by the asa chang and junray, who i suspect are the same person, but i don't know, either way he plays tabla and often plastic tabla and does lovely electronics work and makes cool, curious songs like this.

Eric Clapton - Have You Ever Loved A Woman
I know we've moved on from the blues, but I was listening to the Derek and the Dominos version of this on my walk and decided that I should share it. It loses something without Duane, though. |

The Platters - Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
...shutting down the music for the night...perfect song to end a day on Quote:
you know X did a video based on this short...just a little trivia |
Smoke Gets In Your eyes always makes me think of my grandfather... he used to mock my mom (who was a child of the 50s and would play this and other 50s music) with the "shoo bop shoo bop" and it would make him crack up.

You can watch yourself while you are eating... I love that song. Sarah Harmer - Took It All/Claire I was looking for a version of the Rheostatics Claire (it reminds me a woman I used to know) and couldn't find it. Instead I came across this live version of Sarah Harmer singing Took it All which ends with a little bit of Claire... |

Once again, because when I have free time and/or booze on hand, music is just "my thing".

Lynard Skynard - Black Betty
Oh.....My..... |
Quote:
A history lesson: Black Betty began life as an African American folk song. It was first adapted for popular culture by Lead Belly, and has been covered by a huge variety of artists, including (among others) Nick Cave and Tom Jones, along with the massively famous and sometimes misattributed Ram Jam version from the seventies. Rumour has it that the song was originally about a rifle. I wanted to post the Lead Belly version, but I couldn't find it, so I settled for Nick and the Bad Seeds instead. It has a more rhythmic cadence feel that gives a good idea of the evolution of the song. |
Cool...thanks for the lesson.
ummm, hot I mean. Can't sit still with any version, gotta move, Wanna dance? |
Hank Williams - Jambalaya
'cause I always have to bounce off the last post...'Jam' I appreciate this song more since having lived in SW Louisiana...Hank got the Cajun inflections down pat...that's really the way they talk, lol...one of the few things I liked about that hellhole |

Frank Sinatra - Chicago
what a fun town... had dinner at Chicago Firehouse in the South part of town near our hotel. |
Questions in a World of Blue - Julee Cruise
she's mostly known for her collaborations with David Lynch...such as this tune...but I have all her albums. I find her to be most soothing and pleasant. :) Alison Krauss & Union Station - The Lucky One... |
kahimi karie: good morning world.
sometimes i feel like i'm waking up. sometimes i feel like i'm waking up inside a dream in which i am waking up. sometimes i can't tell the difference. sometimes i don't know if there is a difference. sometimes while in that state of mind, i look in the mirror and hear kahimi karie sing this song. it makes me dance around. while i'm dancing around, it doesn't matter so much where i am. this is for you too, ms. media. |
