Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

meara - I will give you to Monday to decide if you want in or not. I am managing the whole list. Basically people just mail to one person, but they mail about 12 CDs throughout the life of the thing.

msbelle, I thought you were sending me something today. Further instructions or my trading partner or whatever. Today's not over, of course, but I'm soon to be offline for the day.

hayden, I just emailed you.

Too bad I don't own any music from 1967. Just kidding.

I was actually thinking about using that love song about skin art from The Greatest Album Ever Recorded. Isn't that what you called it? (The album, not the song.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think I said it was the greatest Rock album ever recorded, but only since the reissue with extra tracks.

You'll like this, Joe. I made a Frankenmix of just jazz songs. This wont' be my actual mix so I'm not spilling the beans anywhere.

Sdtrk Life - Sophisticated Lady - Duke Ellington
Cur in Stero - Lullaby of Birdland - Sarah
1st Rec - Peter Gunn by Quincy Jones w/Roland Kirk
No Word - 12! - Sonny Stitt
Yr Born (1961)- Wham Bam Thank You Ma'am - Mingus
Name Exch - Rebecca - Lee Konitz
Not English - Naima - Les Double Six (this is a gorgeous french acapella version of the Coltrane classic)
CityState - Key Largo - Sarah Vaughn
RoadTrip - Route 66 - Nat King Cole Trio
Local - Take Five - Dave Brubeck
Color - Your Little Red Wagon - Anita O'Day
5am Happy - I was tempted by 5 a.m. Strut - Ezra Weiss, but will actualy take Little Tracy - Wynton Kelly
Not a Cover - Song For My Father - Horace Silver
(Steely Dan famously rip off the beginning of this song for one of their hits)
Book/movie - Jack Kerouac - Charlie Parker
Wildcard - Theme From the Wild One - Shorty Rogers
#1 Song -Cast Your Fate To The Wind - Vince Guaraldi
Little bit country - I'm an Old Cowhand From the Rio Grande - Sonny Rollins
Hate artist luv song - Red Top - King Pleasure / Betty Carter, I don't really hate Betty Carter but she's my least favorite of the acknowledged giants of jazz singing.
Wha? - Yep Roc Heresy - Slim Gaillard (fantastic mumbo jumbo from the coolest guy ever)
Guilty? - Soul Sauce - Cal Tjader (not so very guilty, but this is a serious groover. Not "serious" jazz)
TV Theme - Theme for Mr. Broadway - Dave Brubeck
Unrequited love - Willow Weep For Me - Billie Holiday (there's a movie with Jeanne Moreau where she listens to this song incessantly. So...existential.)
Love for Title - The Shoes of the Fisherman's Wife Are Some Jive Ass Slippers - Mingus (Mingus always had the best titles)
Stump David & Jon - Come As You Are - Charlie Hunter (cover of the Nirvana tune)

This was totally my song for that category on my actual mix! But - I can't fit it on there it turns out. But still, funny.
