Tuesday Morning Music Shuffle - Talking to Myself Mix

Tweet #E2TG

In the predawn gloom of a warmish wintery morning.  Backed by choirs of angels or at least by the steady thum of the engine and the slightly muted songs on the radio... driving the newly familiar route passing the same buildings and noticing anything that looks out of place. Past the way too many car lots along my way, filled with cars that never sell and contemplating the meaning of all existence and trying to stay awake. A meaningless, yet invigorating conversation with one of the many interesting characters that fate has brought into my life. Today, the discussion was about letters we would banish, alternate spellings we would outlaw.  Keep it simple... I suppose. 

Then my shuffle begins with a song that holds memories - don't they all in one way or another?

Shuffle - after the JUMP!

Wednesday Morning Music Shuffle - Zombie Apocalypse Mix

It really isn't a question of if... it's a question of when... are you prepared... the CDC has some tips.

And but so, we move forward.  Colder air has arrived, but it's not too bad.

You may have heard or noticed that some sites including Wikipedia are blacked-out today in protest of the proposed SOPA regulations. Here's some information about SOPA/PIPA.  One thing that sucks is that in the three or four seconds Wikipedia comes up, I noticed that the article of the day is about Nick Drake. So, tomorrow, be sure to click back to the Nick Drake article.

On we go...

First up, Stephen Malkmus & the Million Dollar Bashers cover Dylan's Maggie's Farm for the I'm Not There Motion Picture Soundtrack. (check out this very cool soundtrack below).

Next is another awesome, trippy track from the forthcoming Beyond Beyond is Beyond compilation from Bang Bang Boogaloo. This time, we have Cincinnati-based Buffalo Killers with a track called Lily of the Valley. Below you can check out their album 3.

Ear to the Ground favorite Don Ryan is next with another great song from his Tangle Town album.  This one is called Crystal Star.  Use this as an excuse to check out Tangle Town...

And finally, via Soundcloud comes a song called A Narrow Sky from 80s era Nashville legends Raging Fire:

Raging Fire - A Narrow Sky by Allen in Tennessee


And check out their classic EP A Family Thing below.
