Good stuff.

Kaiser Chiefs - Everyday I Love You Less and Less
Black Sabbath - Children of the Grave
Black Crowes - Lickin'
Lou Reed - What's Good
Thunder - Turn Left At California (live)

I have a new 120-gig iPod classic.

Costco rocks.

I bought an iPod there in 2005, and it died a year later. They said I could return it, even after all that time.

So, with the cash back, I went and bought a 30-gig version in the store.

They changed the return policy for electronics in 2007 -- now you have 90 days to return -- but any purchase before then was grandfathered in.

So, when the 30-gig started having issues last week, I took it back, and again they gave me cash to get a new one.

So, when all is said and done, I bought one new iPod in 2005, and got two free once -- and cash, since the price dropped each time.

Best. Store. Ever.

her's the first 10 after hitting shuffle:

1 "Talking Baseball (2000 Mets version)" by Terry Cashman
2 "Don't Talk" by 10,000 Maniacs from Unplugged
3 "Thrive" by Newsboys from Newsbous Remixed
4 "It's Only Rock and Roll (Live)" by the Rolling Stones from Live Licks
5 "Good Day Sunshine" by the Beatles from Revolver
6 "Wide River" by Steve Miller Band from Wide River
7 "Not the Only One" by Bonnie Raitt from Luck of the Draw
8 "Witch Hunt" by Rush from Moving Pictures
9 "Every Move I Make" by Fusebox from Lost in Worship
10 "Cruel Summer" by Bananarama from their Greatest Hits

Kind of an odd mix, especially the Stones/Beatles pairing. That's the beauty of shuffle!

I'm an ipod rookie. I bought my first one a few months ago, and thought I ruined my eyesight by the time I was done loading my entire music collection into iTunes.

I don't know how to random shuffle play my entire music collection in iTunes. I only know how to random shuffle a playlist. This sounds like something incredibly simple to do, but I can't figure it out and haven't been able to google up an answer, either.

Any help? (Let's Go Mets!)

John Cougar Lunchbucket
Apr 10 2009 08:48 AM

I never use the pod, just I-tunes. There the easiest way is to just hit "party mix" in your library and count the first 10 that come up.

You can also create your own playlists on iTunes and call it what you want, but you can do it in random , most played , most skipped....you can tell it to do most anything.

An amazing toy!

I like my playlists, but I throw it on shuffle a lot, too. Somehow, when you don't know what you need to listen to, the iPod knows.

It's fun on a long driving trip, like we're taking tonight. The only problem is that I have to be in control of the pod, because my wife will only listen to about 150 of the 6,400 songs on there, and she'll keep skipping and skipping, offering tanatalizing moments of great 1980s gems, until she gets to one she'll listen to. And it's seems like five minutes of this goes by and I'm like "PICK A SONG!!!! What you suddenly don't like REM? Arrrrrggghhh."

And then I get in trouble and the long car ride isn't as plesant.

Yes. The only reason I got an ipod is for the car. I noticed that the cases on any CD that I would bring into my car would, likely, end up damaged. Plus, what's not to like about having your entire music collection in your hip pocket at all times?

So .... here are the results of my first iTUnes random shuffle play (first 10 songs)

Sweet Georgia Brown - Oscar Aleman
Seconds - U2
Hear My Train A Comin' (Live Woodstock) - Jimi Hendrix
Back Door Man - Howlin' Wolf
Sweet Lorraine - Benny Goodman
Do They Know it's Christmas? - Band Aid
Batman - The Who
Screwdriver - The White Stripes
Whammer Jammer - The J. Geils Band

I love the variety and diversity on these lists, not just from list to list, but within each. Garth Brooks and the Meat Puppets - nice.

Big Bill Broonzy's name reminds me of a story that has been credited to him, as well as Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, and a few others according to the limited digging I did. If you haven't heard it, the story goes that they asked Broonzy if he considered the music he played folk music. "Must be," he said, "I never heard horses sing none of it."

I was moved to look all of this this up a while ago by a very low-tech public cable show in New Jersey called "Horses Sing None of It." I've never seen it live, but I did buy a VHS of a band I know who appeared on it around 2002.

I'll start by working off Lunchbucket's "A" list. I also have The Jackson 5's ABC on my iPod, so I'm eligible to jump in.

="John Cougar Lunchbucket"] I'll start at the start with A: 1. Abandoned Love -- Bob Dylan 2. ABC -- Jackson 5 3. Abraham, Martin & John -- Marvin Gaye 4. Absolute Beginners -- David Bowie 5. Accident Waiting to Happen -- Billy Bragg 6. Accidents Will Happen -- Elvis Costello 7. Across the Avenue -- Freedy Johnston 8. Across the Universe -- Beatles 9. Act Natually -- Beatles 10. The Act We Act -- Sugar


ABC -- The Jackson 5
1. Aberdeen -- Kenny Wayne Shepherd -- Ledbetter Heights
2. Aberdeen Mississippi Blues -- Bukka White -- The Complete Bukka White
3. Abie Baby -- Various Artists -- Hair Soundtrack
4. Abilene -- Lightnin' Hopkins -- The Complete Aladdin Recordings
5. About To Make Me Leave Home -- Bonnie Raitt -- Sweet Forgiveness
6. Above The Clouds -- Electric Light Orchestra -- A New World Record
7(a). Abraham, Martin And John --Dion -- AM Gold 1968
7(b). Abraham, Martin And John --Smokey Robinson & The Miracles -- The 35th Anniversary Collection
8. Absolutely Free -- Frank Zappa & The Mothers -- We're Only In It For The Money
9. Absolutely Sweet Marie -- Bob Dylan -- Blonde On Blonde
10. Achilles Last Stand --Led Zeppelin -- Presence

The next poster should have at least one of these 10 songs on his or her iPod in order to jump in.

I noticed the same thing. Ah Leah is the only Donnie Iris song I can even name, and that's what I was thinking of after the other DI references: What's the name of that Donnie Iris song that I know? Ah, yes. Ah Leah. Well, here it is now.

I noticed the exact same thing. I've got Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and yesterday, while skimming through my "A's" while playing this ipod game, I saw the track listing, which I immediately thought was incorrect. I didn't bother to look it up though, as you did: I was sure the song title was supposed to include the word "Young" and assumed that there was some programming error with that particular track.

I have somehow managed to lose my entire iTunes library , except of course the tunes I purchased direct on iTunes. That's 135 songs out of over 3000. I have no clue what happened except when I downloaded the sofeware for the Nikon I deleted all the folders that that automatically pulled in. No idea why I did that except I didn't want any of those folders in this new software as I have them on the PC anyway...obviously i didn't realize that I would be deleting my iTunes library too.

When I plugged in my ipod to sync last night iTunes gave me a warning that this ipod was synced with a different library and I could "sync and erase'......I didn't do that.

The problem is I've looked on my PC and found old iTunes libraries but they are empty....I am pretty sure that whatever happened my music is gone to ituns heaven.

PGIM? Is that a typo or are you referring to him as Philliesguyinmichigan for his love of pulled pork?

Come on, MGIM, put us back on track. Build off of "Black and White" in batmags list. This is too good a thread to fast forward through the majority of it. We need something to occupy our minds and keep us from thinking of the Mets miserable play.

Another alternative, would be for Willet to start with his B's that would follow "Black Mountain Side".

Irish: Let us know how the Pod to PC downlowad works out.


By the time I saw this link I had already managed to erase my ipod too , except for the stuff I had bought all was gone. I downloaded the software anyway and sure enough it wanted to send the songs from my ipod to itunes , just songs and viedo but not the apps.

bottom line here is that I have restored my ipod to original settings and am uploading music from my collection again. the good news is that the apps I had already downloaded are recognized by Apple so I am not getting charged for the few I paid for....scrabble and MLB .


I'm not at all upset by this , what's the point. It's a crappy day with no games so I have ample time to get the music back on there.

Since you asked, a couple of hundred words on Famous Blue Raincoat. If the Purveyor of Pomposity feels like I'm stealing his schtick, my apologies.

I love the structure of the lyric, a letter as it is being written. It's a conceit that is often tried but rarely works. Here it works so well that you feel voyeuristic, like you're reading over his shoulder.

The complexity of the relationship is very intriguing to me still, but when I became familiar with it during the 70s I was a teenager and the song seemed so adult and mysterious. I was also curious as to why this song, which seemed so obviously written from a male perspective, was so often covered by women.

There is one particular line that is brilliantly executed, a bit of a play on words, where he writes “Thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes,” but he pauses after ‘took,’ which of course changes the implication of the line dramatically. It’s kind of a head fake – the real subject of the line seems to be the ‘brother’, then suddenly it’s Jane. I’ve heard it 500 times and still smile at it.

Why five versions? Cohen’s is essential, and this song fits his voice very well. As much as I like the rest of the covers I have, no matter who is singing it’s Cohen I see at the kitchen table writing the letter.

The Tori Amos version is from a very uneven tribute CD called Tower of Song. Her cover is just vocal and piano, and her reading is absolutely true to the original, down to the “Sincerely, L. Cohen.” I think this one may be my favorite cover.

Jennifer Warnes’ version is from a record of Cohen songs she did titled Famous Blue Raincoat, and the horns give it such a world weary feel. She tweaks the lyric a bit, (“You came home without Lili Marlene” becomes “She never turned up, I mean Lili Marlene,” and adds a couple of frills, like ‘Be it for Jane or for me” and “I want you to know your enemy’s sleeping.” I think her take on the lyrics is probably most familiar to casual fans, as it seems to have been adopted by a lot of folks covering the song. It’s OK, but I don’t think it packs the punch of the others.

I believe I have everything Richard Shindell ever recorded, and this is a live version from a show he did in Vermont in 2007. He gets the words wrong here and there (You treated my woman with a flake of your life makes no sense), but it’s pretty well done. He follows the Warnes lyric styling more closely than the Cohen.

Laurie MacAllister is one-third of an amazing band called Red Molly, who we are very friendly with and have had at our house concert series. I like her cover a lot, especially considering how unlike the rest of her repertoire this song is.

I'm sure there are a dozen more covers out there that bring something to the party, and I'll find them in due time. It's such a great song to cover, open to all sorts of speculation and interpretation. Next to Chelsea Hotel #2 it's my favorite Cohen song.

* "The Fly" might be my favorite U2 song. The part where Bono goes into the "gospel voice" as the Edge rolls through the guitat solo is just brilliant. I was down on U2 for a while, but Auctung baby just connected like Beltran blast.

** Somewhat embarrassed that Ozzy and "Foolin'" are on here. But they remind me of one of my favorite concerts in high school. Ozzie was the headliner, and it was the tour with Randy Rhodes, who we thought was the bomb -- I was a junior or senior at Berner High at the time. The Joe Perry Project was the middle act. I like Joe's solo stuff, and you've seen the goofy photo of me interviewing him. And the opener was Def Leppard on its first tour.

When I got my iPod I spent two weeks worth of evenings and weekends ripping and categorizing CDs. My rule of thumb is if I want the whole album I buy the physical CD, but if I only want a few tracks I get them from iTunes.

I rarely buy a whole album from iTunes. New stuff is usually available at Best Buy or Amazon for around $10, and indie folkie stuff I tend to buy from the merch table in a church basement or 40-seat club.

You all have 10 times as many tunez as me. Answer me two questions: (1) Are you afraid of gobbling up all your memory on iTunes? (2) Are the majority of your tracks downloads from the internet or uploads from your CD collection?[/quote:3mhhkcah]

I just got the 120-gig version, so I have room for both the Van Morrison version AND the Rod Stewart version, as well as the unplugged and studio versions of Harvest Moon.

Confession: I don't like Rod Stewart, but I do like that song, and, well, "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy," which I recognize is pure crap but is the textbook example of guilty pleasure.

The public library is my friend. The whole region is linked, and the catalog is online. So I can order a CD online and they deliver it to the nearest branch. Since it's free, I've been able to discover bands like the Replacements and Live that I missed because I spent the 1990s in Flint, where the radio stations are all Bob Seger all the time.

I am worried about using too much memory. I bought a 500-gig external drive, and would love to transfer iTunes to it, but I'm not sure how to do it -- dropping and dragging seems too easy -- and I fear screwing up and losing everything.

Got a lot of play around dinner time.[/quote:1dfa8c6v]

If you had asked me I'd have said I had Harvest Moon. And I am sure I did at some point. In fact I'm pretty sure I borrowed it from my friend Deny and transferred it to cassette for listening in my car. That would have been in 93 or something.

My itunes is basically my cd collection, which was never collected as passionately as my LP collection, plus a few hundred singles I purchased off itunes over the last 5 years.*

Next move is to digitize the LPs (those I didn't already give away crying) -- my in-laws have the equipment.

The cassettes are gone forever, along with that car.

The digitizing the LP maneuver has been pretty unsatisfying for me. You lose the "warmth" of the LP and add the compression of the mp3 plus with all the nicks and pops. I kind of like the LPs that I have just living in their LP world for playing around the house.

Me too. Long-term these guys might have been better off if Cracked Rear View was a pretty big hit instead of the beast that ate AAA radio. I really liked that CD and Fairweather Johnson, and their 'Odds and Sods' disc, called Scattered, Smothered and Covered, is a lot of fun, and includes a cover of Driver 8 where Darius gets a good portion of the lyrics completely wrong and cheerfully so. A must!

I went to see the R.E.M. Tribute Concert at Carnegie Hall in March. Darius did I Believe, and pretty much blew the roof off the old dump.

Edgy DC

Long term, they'd have been better off if they (a) had been called "Tallahassees" or "The Flying Dutchmen" or "The Railsplitters" or something better than "Hootie & the Blowfish."

Breaking as they did in the midst of the grunge revolution when the marketplace was all about judging badass legitimacy vs. wimpy poseurdom, they were lucky to make it as far as they did with that name. Young men of the era (and older men who considered themselves defenders of rock 'n' roll) were absolutely apoplectic that they were on the radio.

Reall conversation I had with a co-worker in my bookseller years.

<blockquote>Will (badass guitar player fighting a drinking problem): Hootie & the Blowfish are the worst thing to happen to rock 'n' roll since... I don't know, Josie & the Pussycats.

Edgy: I don't know. I don't own any of their music, but I don't mind 'em.

Will: What?! What is there to like?!

Edgy: I don't know. Darius Rucker has a good soul voice, I guess.

Will: Soul?! What does Darius Rucker have to do wuith James Brown?!

Edgy: Well, maybe not in a James Brown vein, but perhaps an Otis Redding vein.

Will: They just suck, Edgy!

Edgy: I kind of like the Pussycats, also.

Assistant manager: Can you guys keep it down?</blockquote>I'm certain that this conversation was going on all over America, but it was 10 years before it could be held at anything approaching a normal volume.

I assume most folks know how to do this, but if you have a long recording on iTunes and want to strip out a piece as an individual track without losing the whole recording here's an easy way:

1) Determine the start and end times of the piece you want to strip out
2) Be sure you are in the main music library
3) Highlight the track and right-click
4) Select Get Info
5) Select the Options tab
6) Fill in the Start and End times, hit OK
7) Right click again and select Create AAC Version
8) A new track will appear in the library with the same name, but the length should be correct.
9) Rename the new track if you wish
10) Rinse and repeat as often as needed.

Steps 1-6 can also be used to modify a track's start and end times, to eliminate intros on a live track, for example. A lot of live CDs have the intro to the next song at the end of the previous track, which is fine when playing straight through but a bit weird when shuffling.

I don't use ITunes since i don't have an IPod. I have an old 20 Gb Dell Jukebox (DJ 20) that I received for Christmas in 2005. I purchase my music from Amazon Music. I manage my digital music with the latest version of Windows Media Player. It apparently disregards the apostrophe in alphabetizing so that <b>I'm</B> is before <b>Imagine</b> which is before <b>In</b>. Apparently that is not the same way that ITunes alphabetizes titles with an apostrophe in the title.

I'm sorry if I disruptied the flow of the thread recently. In the future I will refrain from posting a list when an apostrophe is involved at the start of the title so as not to disrupt the flow of the thread.

After I finshed ripping to iTunes a few months ago, I realized that I must have misplaced some of my CD's. During that time, I've made a list that has gradually grown to about 50 missing CD's. This thread also reminded me of a few CD's I once lent (never returned) to a neighbor a few years ago. Tom Lehrer's stuff keeps on popping up on Met Fairy's playlists, thus also reminding me that my Lehrer complete box set is also missing.

I once saw a Steve Miller interview where he admitted that after hearing Disraeli Gears for the first time ever, he thought about giving up his career. Miller realized instantly that the sound of Disraeli was what he had been striving for all his life, yet he was also convinced that he would never match the talent Clapton displayed on that album.

They're Playing Our Song was an old fashioned Broadway musical comedy, written by Neil Simon with music by Marvin Hamlisch and Carol Bayer Sager. Lucie Arnaz and Robert Klein starred in it. It was overshadowed by Sweeney Todd and the emerging trend towards darker musicals, but it's worth seeing if it ever makes the rounds again.

I saw it with my folks for my 17th birthday, and saw it again with D-Dad (it was his first Broadway show, we bought tickets for it at TKTS, and Tony Roberts had replaced Robert Klein as the male lead. Roberts has a better singing voice, but wasn't nearly as funny as Klein).

Chapter #10 -- They Bought the Funk. Cardboard Gods (I dig the site, too) doesn't have a book out, as far as I know, so you should be intimidating him. But I could see what a drag it would be to have to write about Torborg, who practically stole his #10, and the Met I might just love to hate the most, Rey Ordonez.

** I like taking the church youth group I co-lead to Christian rock concerts so they get to see that there are people who are Christians who are far cooler than their youth group co-leader. Often, the artists hang out at their merch tables after the show to meet fans, pose and sign and sell t-shirts. We saw Seven Places at an outdoor festival with about 10 bands, and the guys in the band were out there most of the day, and made a big deal about the kids in my group, meeting them, then yelling their names every time they walked past. The kids were thrilled.

THE WILD MIDWESTERN BOY

There was a wild Midwestern boy, Bob Zimmerman his name,
He was raised in Minnesota, the Mesabi iron range
He left his mother’s cozy home, he changed his father’s name
He called himself Bob Dylan, and to New York town he came.

He wandered through the Village, a-strummin’ his guitar,
He wore a cap of corduroy, and sang of peace and war,
He said the times were changing and filled young men’s hearts with joy,
A terror to the establishment was this wild Midwestern boy.

One day upon MacDougal Street, as Bob he strode along,
A-strummin’ on his guitar, and a-singin’ a protest song,
A vision came before his eyes, as plain as he could see,
The All-American Super Hits on WABC.

“Surrender now, Bob Dylan, and a millionaire become,
Surrender to the Establishment, you aren’t the only one.”
Bob plugged into an amplifier, and said, “I like the tone,”
Then promptly he sat down and made “Just Like a Rolling Stone.”

Now Dylan is a hero, with an amplified guitar
He sings of screwed-up women, and forsakes the Vietnam War,
He claims he’s got the misery, but he’s havin’ a lot of fun,
Gunnin’ his motorsickle down on Highway 61.

OK, I feared the thread was dying, and I really enjoy it. So I went the the library and borrowed "London Calling" to get the Clash song. I only have a couple Clash compilations, so I should have "London Calling" anyway.

Working off "Lover's Rock" by the Clash

* The Lucky Town and Human Touch CDs are teated like the red-headed stepchild of the Springsteen catalog, but I like them. Should have been one CD, but still OK. SOme great cuts. and his SNL performance in support was one of my fave musical performances on the show.

That said, this iTunes grouping might be the least reflective of my tastes.

Meme Si - Gregory Lemarchel*****
Memories of You - Brian Simpson

*About five years ago I was writing for an online music mag. The gig lasted five minutes. This song was on a CD I was given to review - it's a goofy little song, and it always amused me.

**It's on a compilation CD I own

***I'm not generally into Christian Rock, but I liked Stellar Kart's CD when I had a chance to preview it on AOL, and I wound up buying it.


****I don't have many Spanish recordings, but I like the Gipsy Kings

*****When I was in Switzerland two years ago, I wanted a French pop CD to bring home as a souvenir, and I chose Gregory Lemarchel's. I actually used one of the songs off of the CD as the background music for my video montage of the trip. After I did that, a friend of mine who is French told me that Lemarchel was very popular - the winner of France's version of American Idol - but that he had recently died due to complications from Cystic Fibrosis.




This is probably the least representative group of songs on my list. But I'm counting on somebody matching either Tom Lehrer or Meet the Mets.

If I am allowed to bend the rules a little. I downloaded several Platters songs this week for my RnR HoF playlist. And while "My Prayer" was not one of them, it could have been. So:

I don't think you can bend the rules like that. I think Lunchbucket working off of "My Favorite Things" would be allowable in an emergency such as this one but not off of a song that you have other songs by the artist but not that one.

(on edit): Way back in this thread I downloaded a song to keep it going. I bet all of those Old Mole songs are worth owning --- someone should get one of them (I won't be home til late tonight and won't be in front of a computer with itunes in it for a couple of days).

Just trying to keep it going. I looked for "My Prayer" in the library yesterday to no avail, and then checked out the song on iTunes. It was nice, but I liked "Great Pretender" and "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" a lot better. Thought I was in the spirit of the thread.

I think any chick who ever sang with her sister(s) was, at one point, married to Loudon.
Plus Loudon's own sister sings. And the sister of his McGarrigle wife. And the sisters of his Roche wife. Plus both his daughters who are half-sisters to each other. Plus his son who's sort of like another sister anyway.

I believe the only Wainwright not currently singing is Cardinal pitcher Adam and who knows what he does in the shower - besides dream of throwing curveballs past Beltran of course.

When Lenny was in kindergarten we got a contact sheet for the other kids in his class. There was a girl in his class (she would be 17 now) whose father was listed as Louden Wainwright III with an address in Westchester (Lenny went to school in Manhattan, Loudon now lives near L.A.) The girl's mother was not a Roche or a McGarrigle (nor was the girl a friend of Lenny's and I believe she wasn't in the school after that year) but I'm not sure if she sang with a sister, or even had a sister.

More trivia - Solas covered this song in 2005 on Waiting for an Echo, the title of which was taken from a phrase in this song. Winifred Horan of Solas played on several tracks on the 1992 Shindell CD that contained this track, Sparrows Point, but not on this track.

It's strange. That Feder song (and the Joe Ely song also on that list) is off the first "Los Super Seven" record but the composer/performers show up separately as the artists in iTunes, at least for some of the compositions. Anyway it is a good record!

** The Ducks do a "Sing For Your Dinner" promotion between innings, where they bring someone up on one of the dugouts to sing karaoke for a few seconds. Usually, the singer sucks, but the crowd cheers and they give the singer a restaurant gift certificate. A few seasons ago, my wife, my friend and I were at a game, and I hopped up at the close of an inning to get some food. While I'm waiting on line directly behind our seats, they introduce "Ed from Levittown," who starts singing "Two Tickets To Paradise." The guy was good -- really good. Nailed it. I turned around in line and caught my friend's eye, and we gave each other a thumbs-up, as if to say "Hey, this guy's pretty good." I got back to my seat, and sure enough, there's Eddie Money up there singing.

Sam Cooke did Shake Rattle and Roll? I'll have to find that. Elvis also did it. The Bill Haley version is famous for bowdlerizing the lyrics ("Wearin' those dresses, the sun come shinin' through" becomes "Wearin' those dresses, your hair done up so nice"), but they left in one verse that was so subtly dirty they didn't get it -- "I'm like a one-eyed cat, peepin' in a seafood store."

"Spider Fingers/Tempus Fugit" by Bruce Hornsby

Spider in the Snow - Dismemberment Plan *
Spider's Web - Mission of Burma **
Spider's Web (Natural History) - Pete Seeger **
The Spiderbite Song - The Flaming Lips
Spike Driver Blues - Mississippi John Hurt (2 versions)
Spin and Turn - Tom Paxton ***
Spin Spin Sugar [Radio Edit] - Sneaker Pimps
Spine - They Might Be Giants (2 versions)
Spinning - Fighting Gravity %
Spinning Round - Hum Machine #

Bruce Hornsby appropriately leads off a list with many Virginia-based musicians and people I (sort of) know. I used to see Hornsby around town when I lived in Williamsburg, VA.

* Great band from DC/Northern Virginia lead by a guy I knew in college.
** Same title, very different songs
*** Hey, someone else based in Northern Virginia. I met him once.
% Yet another Virginia band, but from Richmond. Played at my Senior Dance at college.
# Everyone on the Cranepool should have an album by this fine, fine band. You know one of the members.

No, that's really good. Doesn't seem to be for sale on iTunes, I guess it was a one-off. I'll have to see if I can use Freecorder to rip the audio.

I was way more into the Corrs ten years ago or so. I was in Cork on business back in 2000 and was pretty happy to find a new Corrs CD at the HMV that I knew wasn't coming out in the States for at least a few more months.

The CD Spancil Hill was from is called Home, and is comprised of more 'traditional' Celtic songs than some of their more pop stuff, although their definition of traditional is probably more contemporary than most. I really like Andrea Corr's voice, and when their one of their songs comes up on the iPod it's pleasant enough.

The beauty of the 120-gig iPod is that you have room for EVERYTHING!

I'm loyal to a fault, whether it's to sometimes bad baseball teams or to bands. Rush and Kiss are among the things, like the Mets, that have been constants throughout most of my life.

Now, the playcounts on the Kiss catalog aren't especially high, at least until my son latches on to a song here or there. But I like having them on the pod. Kind of a strange comfort thing. And you never know when someone is going to say, "I wish I could hear 'Detroit, Rock City' right now. And you can say 'Which version?" with a devilish smile!

Jul 12 2009 11:37 AM

OK, do it this way. We've all got a taste of each other's playlists now. The last complete list came from Craig Swan Hummingbird. Somebody posts the following:

"I've considered Swan Swan H's interests and I think he would enjoy '_____________' by __________." Try and dig deep in your knowledge and get something he might be unfamiliar with. Take a day or two if necessary. Ask your cousin what an Ian & Sylvia fan might like. Ask your wife. Ask your cousin's wife.

Swan will then answer either with "Thanks, I've got it," or "Thanks, I've now downloaded it," followed by a brief (or extended) review of the track and a rating on a 1-10 scale. Swan then recommends a track to the poster who preceeded him.

We should be gracious about each other's taste, but we can be competitive and consider anybody whose recommendation gets under 5 three times struck out, and not accept any more recommendations.

That's because your library orders your songs differently. In your list "99 Year Blues" precedes "808 Beats" because the numerical value of 99 is less than the numerical value of 808. Most other libraries order songs that begin with a number, not according to the value of the entire number, but according to the value of the first digit only. Ties are broken by the value of the next digit, and the digit after that. So in most other libraries, for example, all songs that begin with the "9" digit would be at the very bottom. 9 xyz would come after 8888,888,888 xyz.

Where'dya get 300 Pounds of Joy From? My version is spelled Three Hundred Pounds of Joy.

="Edgy DC":3rv5x9jp]OK, do it this way. We've all got a taste of each other's playlists now. The last complete list came from Craig Swan Hummingbird. Somebody posts the following: "I've considered Swan Swan H's interests and I think he would enjoy '_____________' by __________." Try and dig deep in your knowledge and get something he might be unfamiliar with. Take a day or two if necessary. Ask your cousin what an Ian & Sylvia fan might like. Ask your wife. Ask your cousin's wife. Swan will then answer either with "Thanks, I've got it," or "Thanks, I've now downloaded it," followed by a brief (or extended) review of the track and a rating on a 1-10 scale. Swan then recommends a track to the poster who preceeded him. We should be gracious about each other's taste, but we can be competitive and consider anybody whose recommendation gets under 5 three times struck out, and not accept any more recommendations.[/quote:3rv5x9jp]


OK, I'll give this a try:

I've considered Rockin' Doc's interests and I think he would enjoy "Next Thing You Know" by Matthew West from his CD "History," (which I'd be happy to send him.)

Why? I notice that like me, Doc enjoys Christian rock mixed in with his classics from the 1970s and 1980s. I've spotted Third Day, Jars of Clay and others from the genre.

West doesn't get as much exposure as those guy, but he's really good. I've met him twice, and he seems like a really nice guy. Both Jars and Third Day mix up their rock with worship songs, and West does a fair amount of that two.

Enjoy!

I'm not sure I'm doing this as Edgy intended I'm a little confused as to whom I am to make a recommendation. metsguy is the poster that preceeds me. Anyway, we'll give it a try and Edgy can get this thread back on course if I'm not doing this right.

Okay, I listened to both the album version and a live performance of "Next Thing You Know" by Matthew West. I like the song. It has an upbeat acoustic guitar sound reminiscent of Donovan Frankenreiter or Jack Johnson. The lyrics are largely autobiographical, but still easy for me to relate to on a personal level. This is classified as contemporary christian music, but more importantly it is simply good music. Thanks for the tip, I've already listened to a few of his other songs as well. I will be adding a few tracks the next time I purchase music for my library (most likely this weekend).


<b>I've considered metsguyinmichigan's interests and I think he would enjoy <i>American Tragedy</i> by <i>Tait</i> from his debut album <i>Empty</i>. </b>

I saw that metsguy had several cuts by DC Talk in his library. I think he also had some Toby Mac from his post DC Talk solo work. Well, Michael Tait must have been the rocker of the DC Talk trio if his solo work is any indication. <i>American Tragedy</i> looks at racial prejudice and how far our nation still has to go before people are judged on their merit rather than their race. The lyrics were cowritten by Michael Tait and Toby (Mac) McKeehan. I hope you enjoy it.

I like this idea. In order to post your 10 random songs you have to match one of the 10 on the preceeding list.

I think Edgy's suggestion has a lot of merit also and it would be very more informative, but I think it's obvious that I, for one, don't fully understand the procedure.

Good call, Doc!

What a great song. Tait's "Empty" CD is indeed a rocker! I like how he interspersed snippets of the interview with the, um, unenlightened person -- "I wasn't raised with 'em, and I don't intend to start now" -- with the lyrics talking about the struggles in the past and yet his optimism for the future.

I used to lead the church middle school youth group, and include a song with each lesson. One week I brought in cdtalk's "Jesus Freaks" cd, and showed them the back cover, which shows the band.

I'd tell them one of the three is a rocker, one a rapper and the other is a guy from Grand Rapids. Every kid but one picked Tait to be the rapper, since he is black. But Toby's the hip-hopper, and he's white. We had a good discussion about making snap judgments about people based on their looks and prejudice.

The song kind of looks along these lines. A great cut to be sure! Thanks for recommending.

Well, the idea was to pay it forward working backwards through the thread. Or, at worst, recommend randomly. But not to close the circle.

Rockin' Doc
Jul 23 2009 08:16 PM

Well, this was far too interesting and active a thread to just let it die because we have all worked through the alphabet. I say we give this another shot. Let's try metsguy's proposal of using 10 songs as they play on a randomized scramble of your music library. Then someone that matches one of the songs listed, then lists 10 randomly played songs from their music library. As before, comments and insights regarding your list are welcomed.

The last 10 random songs played from my music library:

These Eyes -- The Guess Who
Cinnamon Girl -- Neil Young
Knockin' On Heaven's Door -- Bob Dylan
Share the Land -- The Guess Who
Shakin' Hands -- Nickelback
Centerfield -- J. Geils Band
I'm Down -- Beatles
All You Need Is Love -- Beatles
Spanish Moon (Live) -- Little Feat
Something Good This Way Comes -- Jakob Dylan

Consecutive Beatles tunes isn't too suprising since the Beatles are easily the band with the most songs (over 100) in my music library. Two songs in rapid succession from the Guess Who is definitely more suprising, since they only have 11 songs in my library.

Bob Dylan and Jakob Dylan give a rare father son appearance in the space of 10 songs. Jakob inherited his legendary father's songwriting gift, though his music tends to be more straight ahead, 4 piece band rock and roll where Dad is more the folk troubadour.

OK, I clicked on "All You Need is Love" by the Beatles. next were:

1) "Elevation" by U2, the live verson from U218 Singles. Bono, please stop talking.
2) "Possession" by Sarah McLachlan
3) "What a Good Boy" by Barenaked Ladies, from the Live in Grand Rapids official boot I downloaded from their Web site. We were at the show!
4) "Please Please Me" by the Beatles
5) "I Just Wanna Have Something to Do" by Garbage from the Ramones tribute CD
6) "Least of These" by DecembeRadio
7) "Fast Car" by Tracy Chapman
8) "The Adultress" by the Pretenders
9) "No Reaction" by Relient K

After Possession by Sarah McLachlan:

Walkin' Away from Caroline - Dave Carter & Tracy Grammer
Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner – Warren Zevon
The Greatest Man That Ever Lived (Variations On A Shaker Hymn) – Weezer
Too Repressed – Sometymes Why *
Redbird Waltz – Redbird **
Storm – Dan Bern
Gold Rush Brides – 10,000 Maniacs
Learn to Fly – Carbon Leaf
Why Can’t We Be Friends – War
Lady, Oh Lady – Pete and J

* A side project for three female singer-songwriters, Kristin Andreassen, Ruth Ungar Merenda, and Aoife O’Donovan. This song, featuring O'Donovan, almost makes me blush thanks to her recitation of things she is too repressed to do to the unnamed musician about whom she wrote the song. The band was named in part, one story goes, as a joke on the number of vowels in Aoife.

** A one-off collaboration of three excellent singer-songwriters, Peter Mulvey, Kris Delmhorst and Jeffrey Foucault. Foucault and Delmhorst still occasionally perform together, as evidenced by the birth of their daughter a little over a year ago.

I'm sure someone has an easier way, but I went the manual method - I set iTunes to shuffle, started Possession, then hit the forward button ten times.

Jul 24 2009 12:30 PM

If you have a song from the previous poster's random shuffle, then identify the song you had from their list and simply post the next 10 songs that randomly play on your player. I don't believe you need to start with the song you matched from the other persons list.

This thread is more challenging to keep going than expected.

Okay - I'll give it a shot but there's got to be an easier way than just writing them down after clicking 'ff'.

After Gold Rush Brides - 10,000 Maniacs

1. RENT - Original Broadway Cast
2. Discotheque - U2
3. Let Me Go - The Rolling Stones
4. Original Of The Species - U2
5. Kick Out The Jams - The Presidents Of The United States Of America
6. Cryin' For My Baby - The Blasters
7. Stay - U2
8. Sitting On A Fence - The Housemartins
9. Eleutheria - Lenny Kravitz
10. What A Day That Was - The Talking Heads


Like Rockin' Doc with the Beatles, U2 is the band with the most stuff in my library (235 songs). I have all of their studio albums plus a lot of live stuff and bootlegs.

Bernie's Tune Wardell Gray

Howlin' At Midnight Jimmie Dale Gilmore & Butch Hancock

San Diego Party Johnny Mandel

Mostly iconic giants from different genres here -- Hank, Monk, Bird, Miles. Ellington, Little Richard.

Wardell Gray is one of the jazz musicians mentioned in On The Road -- Sal talks about listening to Dexter Gordon and Wardell Gray playng "The Hunt" -- he has it almost right: it's "The Chase."

"Tennessee Waltz" is an iconic song, if not the most iconic version.

"San Diego Party" is from the jazz score to I Want to Live, written by Mandel, played by Gerry Mulligan.

Randomizing off the Kinks:


Mailman Bring Me No More Blues Buddy Holly
Acadian One-Step Joseph Falcon
Short Street Cluster Duke Ellington
Only You (and you Alone) The Platters
Down In Mexico The Coasters
If I Were a Bell Miles Davis
Five Spot Blues Thelonious Monk
Rocker Miles Davis
Walking to New Orleans Fats Domino
Ballad In Plain D Bob Dylan

Some doowop, a lot of jazz, a couple of 50s masters (Holly and Domino). "Rocker" is from Birth of the Cool, and anyone who doesn't have that, should.

"Mailman Bring Me No More Blues" actually came up twice (what are the odds of that, given about 5000 songs on my iTunes collection), so I skipped the second one.
