Another Friday - Thanksgiving week is usually a complicated one, and this one has been no exception. Started last weekend moving stuff from one storage unit to another - a story in itself. (How does U-Haul survive, without knowing how to cash checks properly?) And then vacation, and all the usual temptations to sleep all day and play games all night... And some food shopping and food prep and all the rest, until the happy day arrives and you eat yourself into a coma and then sleep for 12 hours. Unless you have a retail job, and have to get up to be at work at midnight to cater to the stupidest ritual the country knows... that ain't me, thank god.
And so this Friday, what shall we do for music? Well - thank you songs are always in order....
1. ABBA - Thank you for the Music
2. Big Star - Thank You Friends
3. Fairport Convention - Now Be Thankful
4. George Harrison - Thanks for the Pepperoni
5. Mogwai - Thank You Space Expert
6. Neil Diamond - Thank The Lord for the Nighttime
7. Sam & Dave - I Thank You
8. DM Stith - Thanksgiving Moon
9. Soft Machine - Thank You Pierrot Lumiere
10. Xiu Xiu - Thanks Japan!
And video: Sam and Dave is certainly indicated:
And Fairport Convention, live:
And of course, a cat, thankful for that piece of string.

Ha! A lot of terrific 'thank you' songs there Weeping Sam! I'd propose to add Sly & the Family Stone's "Thank You" to this mix! As you well know of course it's a sould gem.

Very true, Sam, though I used that one (and Led Zeppelin) last year!
