A beloved feature to close out threads on the now defunct False Memory Foam island was the "Hit random shuffle" feature. Well, time to revisit this over here at One Buck Records.
The rules are excessively simple: Simply hit random play on the music-playing device of your choice and list the ten first tracks that come up. No cheating for coolness points! If Lou Bega comes up, so be it! If you don't have a music device with random play, list the five last albms you listened to. If you are old and/or infirm of spirit and don't remember those either, just list the last song you had stuck in your head...
See, exceedingly simple. As I should, I start of proceedings and you'll hopefully follow suit.
Alright folks, let's hit the rando shuffle!

DeleteYes really, no kidding, these are my last 5 CDs I listened to:
ReplyDeleteCarla Bley a.o. - Escalator Over The Hill (Original Studio Recording 1971)

DeleteAs the blogmaster of Schnickschnackmixmax, I bet this was homework for a future post of some sort...am I close?!
Well ... "close" is not quite the right word. Better would be "could have been, if it hadn't already been months ago", here: https://schnickschnackmixmax.blogspot.com/2023/06/carla-bley-band-ecsalator-over-hill.html
ReplyDeleteIt's actually one of my favorite works, I listen to it a lot. I bought the original triple LP in 1974.
