Continuing from my Streamable Track Gots - Jun 07 article, here's my monthly installment of goodies, from my streamable track wants tag!

All tracks on Aaron Neville's My Greatest Gift have become streamable, bringing a couple of my favourites with them:
Hercules and
Tell It Like It Is.
I think, first heard Amy Winehouse's
Rehab on Later...with Jools Holland, now it's streamable :)
Dropping the mood, for a couple of tracks: B.B. King's
The Thrill Is Gone and Bruce Springsteen's Streets Of Philadelphia (sacrilegious to some, I'm sure, but one of the few of The Boss's tracks I like).
Serrado is the track that first got me into Djavan, when it appeared in Gilles Peterson's Gilles Peterson in Brazil selection. The track's a luscious latin swing fest', the vocal gymnastics are amazing, yet so natural - Prepare to dance, this track's a joy!
Four Tet's She Moves She suffered from misassigned audio for a while - now proper stuff streams again :)

2006年 10月 22日, 0:05 作者:Carali
There is also still some songs to be guessed in Pt. 1, 2 & 3
Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 50 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Italicize the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
1. -- (name), it's now or never, give your love to me and I'll shower your heart with tenderness
Lady Willpower
2. Of all the things I believed in, I just want to get it over with
Goodbye to You
3. Many, many years ago, when I was 23, I was married to a widow, who was pretty as could be
I'm My Own Grandpaw
4. You better run, you better run
5. When I said I needed you, you said you would always stay
You Don't Have To Say You Love Me
6. Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, When I want you
All I Have To Do Is Dream
7. I see ya blowin' me a kiss, it doesn't take a scientist
Crush

Probably the Best New Orleans Compilation Ever
2005年 9月 18日, 15:24 作者:pjebsen
Next to New York City, new orleans is my favorite US city - and, as a fan of new orleans funk and soul - I've visited the great New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival many times since the early '80s. Since Hurricane Katrina I've been deeply worried about the local friends I met during my visits and whom I wasn't able to reach by phone or e-mail since then.
The press coverage in the aftermath of Katrina made me aware of a 4-CD box which I ordered although I already own most of the songs I like on CD and, more importantly, on vinyl:
Doctors, Professors, Kings & Queens: The Big Ol' Box of New Orleans.
It contains over 80 songs ... including the following ones:
Drop Me Off In New Orleans
I'm Walkin'
Iko Iko
Ain't Got No Home
Feel Like Funkin' It Up
Mother-in-Law
Hey Pocky A-Way
Rocking Pneumonia And The Boggie Woogie Flu
Release Me
Go Go
Fear, Hate, Envy, Jealousy
Don't You Feel My Leg
Tell It Like It Is
Let The Good Times Roll
I Hear You Knocking
I Like It Like That, Part 1
