This is his DJ’s solo spot in the set. 8. “Southern Girls” by Frankie Beverley and the Mays 9. “Peach” by Prince. A repeat from yesterday! 10. “Diamonds and Pearls” by Prince from _Greatest Hits_, originally from the _Diamonds and Pearls_ album. 11. “Strange Relationship” by Prince from _Sign O’ the Times Disc 2_ 12. “Jimmy” by Bongwater from _Box of Bongwater disc 1_ originally from _Double Bummer_ 13. “Gypsy Eyes” by Jimi Hendrix from _Electric Ladyland_ 14. “Rock and Roll Part 2” by Bongwater from _Box of Bongwater disc 1_, originally from _Double Bummer_ 15. “You Got Me Hummin’” by Reigning Sound from _Too Much Guitar_ 16. “The Glory of Man” by The Minutemen from _Double Nickels on the Dime_ 17. “Beacon Sighted Through Fog” by The Minutemen from _Post Mersh Vol. 1_ 18. “Round the Bend” by Beck from _Sea Change_ 19. “Tension” by The Minutemen from _Post Mersh Vol. 1_ 20. “Down on the Street” by The Stooges from _Fun House_, the greatest album in rock and roll history!

Eerie. From the “What does my iTunes like today?” department, it looks like early Bongwater, The Minutemen, and Prince are the big winners today. Three Prince songsg in a row, even! ---

Been meaning to do this as it sounded like fun. I’m obvioulsy not in tune with the tastes on the board, but here it is anyway. Riverdance Remix – Bill Whelan The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face – Peter, Paul and Mary Pallin’ With Al – Squirrel Net Zippers Torn – Mosaic Whispers (a cappella group) Meant To Be – Squirrel Nut Zippers Only Time – Enya The Heart’s Cry – Bill Whelan How I Saved Roosevelt – From Assassins by Stephen Sondheim Hot Pork Sandwiches – Tanita Tikaram Hi-Heel Sneakers – Jerry Lee Lewis Never Known – Tanita Tikaram Footloose – Kenny Loggins Epiphany – Mass, Leonard Bernstein Harry’s House/Centerpiece – Joni Mitchell You’re No Good For Me – Rosie Ledbet I Love The Heaven’s Solo – Tanita Tikaram In Nomine Patris – Mass, Leonard Bernstein Trope: Half of the People – Mass, Leonard Bernstein Story of My Life – Loretta Lynn Gladiator Theme: Now We Are Free – Enya In my defense, I have two different recordings of Bernstein’s Mass, and only have maybe a 20 albums plus random songs loaded so far on my hard drive. Are there parting gifts? ---
