**Third: The Poll & How it Works**  
All you have to do is list your six favorite tracks from this week’s featured artist. If you’d like to add your own liner notes or opinions, please go right ahead – I, for one, love reading them. If you specify a live version, it will be noted, but tallied with the studio version. Cover versions (performed by the artist we’re polling) **are** acceptable, as are duets and off-shoot projects. Please _try_ to be as accurate as possible when naming your favorite tracks.

**Lastly: The Supplemental Poll Artist of the Week**  
without further ado: 42fish’s Third request of the Week: The **Marshall Crenshaw** 6 @ 6 Poll…

1. Mary Anne
2. Someday, Someway
3. The Usual Thing
4. Cynical Girl
5. Something’s Gonna Happem
6. Little Wild One

1. Someday, Someway - never less than a joy to run across on the radio.

2. The Usual Thing - prime rockabilly.

3. Rockin’ Around In N.Y.C. - yeah, that first album really sunk its hooks in deep.

4. Television Light - great strings, especially the gypsy-fiddle-segues-into-classical-at-the-drop-of-a-hat style of the solo.

5. Like A Vague Memory - this song hurts so good, and I love the acoustic bass here…nothing complicated, but it gives it that extra bit o’torch.

6. Yvonne - I especially love that it’s NRBQ’s rhythm section backing him on this.
