I have this thing where I play my albums in alphabetical order, so the artists/album titles are in the B or C range. I don’t usually listen to stuff using shuffle, but when I switched to shuffle and hit next, the following songs showed up:

[ol][li] **Altan** - _Con Cassidy’s & Neil Gow’s Highlands/Moll And Tiarna/McSweeney’s Reels_ (album: The Celts Rise Again)[/li][li] **Cab Calloway** - _Manhattan Jam_[/li][li] **Julie Andrews** - _Before I Gaze at You Again_ (from the musical _Camelot_)[/li][li] **Carmina Quartet** - _“Langsamer Satz” for String Quartet_ (Anton Webern, composer)[/li][li] **Canadian Brass** - _What Child_[/li][li] **Mary Chapin Carpenter** - _I Want To Be Your Girlfriend_[/li][li] **Cafe Tacuba** - _Las Batallas_[/li][li] **The Cars** - _I’m Not The One_[/li][li]_The Ad-Dressing of Cats_ (from the musical _Cats_)[/li][li] **Don Byron** - _Berele’s Sherele_ (from the album Don Byron plays the music of Mickey Katz - modern-day clarinetist plays music by a Jewish comedian)[/li][/ol]

Always interesting to see that there are people with musical tastes as loathsome as mine. Wonder if anything as embarassing as “Black Betty” will show up on my list (sticking to “rock”)…

I Never Loved Eva Braun - The Boomtown Rats  
Bales Of Cocaine - Reverend Horton Heat  
Square Dance Boogie - Cliff “King” Solomon with Ernestine Anderson  
1,000 Ft Rd - The Supertones  
Going Crazy - Squeeze  
Be Bop Grandma - George Thorogood & The Destroyers  
Everybody Loves A Train - Los Lobos  
Cheated And Lied - The Vipers  
6th Avenue Heartache - The Wallflowers  
Lonesome Town - Ricky Nelson

Someone else must have snuck that Ricky Nelson song into my music library when I wasn’t looking.

I haven’t bought the new album yet, but Joe’s performing in Tel Aviv in a couple of weeks, and I have tickets.
