friday random elevenish: “nothing of particular interest” edition
Been another week. Work. Bike. Play a little guitar. Standard in this time when half the world has decided that the pandemic’s over, and the other half is focusing on rising infections of the Delta Variant, especially because a good third of this country (and a much larger percentage of the localities surrounding mine, even if the Commonwealth itself is looking good) can’t be bothered to get vaccinated.
It ain’t over folks; stay safe.
It’s raining heading into the holiday weekend, which is fine with me, as it’s cooling things off, and I took my bike to the shop yesterday for new tires and a 1500 mile check-up, and it’ll be tied up for a week or so. Oh well, gives me more time to work through some musical issues for ConGregate next weekend.
Anyway, tunes. All over the place, with a few virtuoso players interspersed throughout, which is cool:
- “Saddle in the Rain” – John Prine
- “Life is Suffering” – Deerhoof
- “Ahmad’s Waltz” – Ahmad Jamal Quintet
- “Torn” – Edna Swap
- “Hocus Pocus” – Gary Hoey
- “Give Blood” – Pete Townsend
- “Something in my Eye” – Matt “God Damn These Electric Sex Pants” Berry
- “The Attitude Song” – Steve Vai
- “Forever Now” – The Psychedelic Furs
- “Spiderwebs” – No Doubt
- “Modern Pressure” – Daniel Romano
- “Corner Painter” – Tal Wikenfeld
