Well, well, well, things have been awfully quiet concerning the One Buck Heads recently. Barely a comment could be squeezed of of ya lazy lot! That's gotta change! So, the first random shuffle wasn't a rousing success, but hey, that means we can always do better!
The rules are very simple. Take whatever music playing device you have, put it on random shuffle and list the first ten songs that come up in the comments. There, how hard is that?
If you don't have a playing device that has a random function, just list the last ten songs you remember hearing/playing, or the last five albums, or whatever your grey cells can remember...
I show you mine, you show me yours?
So, here's mine:
Broken Bells - Citizen
The Shins - One By One All Day
Two Gallants - Miss Meri
Beware Of Darkness -Sweet Girl
Ian Matthews - Da Doo Ron Ron
Midlake - Roscoe
Ramones - The KKK Took My Baby Away
The Doobie Brothers - Don't Start Me To Talkin'
Kings Of Leon - Frontier City
Paul Weller - Whatever Next
So, have at it folks...
Nothin' to see here...nope...nothin'
ReplyDeleteBut soon...there will be?!?
So, OBG, the reason I never respond to these things is because I'm constantly catching up on downloads, including from this here site (I finished Doobies, Nirvana opera, Hooters & Abbey Road covered today, as I'm not at work for a change). I don't do random shuffles (and don't have a device devoted to music save for my CD player, and I play CDs to hear them as they were sequenced).
ReplyDeleteSo that means seeing which CDs I haven't put away yet from my last few leisurely (i.e., not catching up on downloads) listens. Here's what's in the stack:
Red Foley & Ernest Tubb - Red & Ernie
White Glove Test - Leap
Richard Thompson - Across A Crowded Room
Gary Floyd - Acoustic/Naked Angel (inspired by your inclusion of a Sis Doub Happ song in a recent Pearls comp)
T Rex - Tanx (Deluxe)
Buzzcocks - Singles Going Steady
C in California
To be fair, C, I rarely use my portable device with random shuffle, basically only when I use public transport to go to work (once a week) and I haven't forgotten to load and I haven't forgotten to pack the damn thing. In other words, rarely.
DeleteI hear you on the constantly catching up on downloads things, we all have too much good music to listen to nowadays, what a luxurious problem to have...but like you, with kids and a job and a hundred other things to do I don't always find time to listen to everything interesting out there right away...I scrounge up enough time to upkeep this place and do my write-ups and album projects in time stolen away here and there...
So, the last albums you listened to works prefectly fine, that's quite the eclectic mix you have there..
(My wife would have a complaint or ten about CDs lingering around and not being put away at their place after being listened to...)
O.K. Here goes
ReplyDeleteFunk #48 - The James Gang
Dr Feelgood - Aretha Franklin

Here is my random listenings, though like others have mentioned I rarely use shuffle mood either. I still paly records or cds 100% of the time and therefore I listen to the complete album as presented. With that said, here's some recent individual cuts/tracks:

Tom Traubert's Blues by Tom Waits
So Easy To Forget by Jude Johnstone
The Girl With the Long Black Hair by The Other Half, another killer garage band track

Remember (Walkin' in the Sand) by the Shangri-Las &
The Walker by Fitz & the Tantrums
