A Friday Musical Interlude

Without much ado, let's dive into our weekly ritual, while Jonathon Papelbon does his thing...

1. Fleetwod Mac - Teenage Darling (Live at the Boston Teaparty)
2. Flaming Lips - Stand in Line
3. Beatles - In My Life **** - no, I don't have a good reason for this to be 4 instead of 5 stars.
4. Bill Frisell - Live to Tell ***** - from one of the best records of the 90s...
5. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Dead Man in My Bed - I don't quite know why there's no stars on this. Who knows. Nice week or so for Nick Cave music - picked up the Grinderman record today, the new live CD/DVD a couple days ago... good to have
6. Modest Mouse - March into the Sea - so is there some kind of prejudice toward newer material in the iTunes/iPod randomizer? had that conversation today - is there anything to it, or just our imagination? I suppose I've got some data here, if I want to speculate....
7. Johnny Cash - Guess Things Happen that Way
8. Sheryl Crow - Solitaire - kind of dull, really - I think I'd prefer the Carpenters proper...
9. Wipers - My Vengeance - one of the great semi-lost bands of the 80s, this one. Very cool.
10. Sly & the Family Stone - Everybody is a Star - true enough, huh?

And to honor all that new Nick Cave: here's a live clip of the Grinderman group doing The Weeping Song....
