Sunday Random 10

Today's shuffle played out on the flight to Houston. Was a beautiful day in MN, rainy in TX. We're glad we took the late flight out.

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

Rosanne Cash - Sleeping In Paris
The Beach Boys - Sloop John B. (live)
The Decemberists - January Hymn
Jackson Browne - Doctor My Eyes
Aaron Neville - Stand By Me
Los Straitjackets - Ana (Anna)
The Hold Steady - A Slight Discomfort
Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs - Couldn't I Just Tell You
Boiling Point - Long Way (All the Pretty Reasons)
The Twilight Hours - Yes

The King is Dead might be our favorite album of 2011. Los Straitjackets' Rock en Espanol is a terrific album of 50's and 60's rock 'n roll done in Spanish, of course. (Los Lobos' Louie Perez's liner notes are pretty terrific, too.) Mr. Sweet and Ms. Hoffs cover our favorite Todd Rundgren tune, and we close with a couple of local bands. Boiling Point is our worship leader's band and the Twilight Hours are half of Trip Shakespeare (John Munson & Matt Wilson) making really fine, tuneful pop.

We now return you to This Week's Discussion Question, already in progress.
