Monday Random Ten

As we continue to shelter-in-place, the Thin Blue Touch is a source of comfort and joy, so let's see what it's offering up this week.

Let's...Hit...Shuffle!

Bruce Springsteen - Land of Hopes and Dreams
Crosby, Stills & Nash - Suite:  Judy Blue Eyes
John Prine - Speed of the Sound of Loneliness
Our Native Daughters - Quasheba, Quasheba
Steve Earle - Here I Am
Rod Stewart - Tonight's the Night (Gonna Be Alright)
Dolly Varden - Mouthful of Lies
Peter Himmelman - Only Innocent
The Beatles - Across the Universe (Past Masters, Vol. 2)
Beki Hemingway - Don't Let It End

Bonus 11
Bob Dylan - Joey

A friend recently wrote that "Land..." is the best gospel song written in the new millennium. It may have been penned on the cusp and a centerpiece in the '99 E Street reunion tour, but he's otherwise correct. We're still processing John Prine's passing. Our Native Daughters is a terrific record from a quartet of African-American women featuring Rhiannon Giddens. Beki is covering the Styx hit, and Bob's recent 16-minute release about the JFK assassination shouldn't have surprised anyone, because the bonus today is all eleven minutes of him from 45 years ago, singing about a mobster.

We now return you to This Week's Discussion Question ("Sarcasm? In the middle of a pandemic?"), already in progress.
