hot damn

no real post. this song just rules. i can't stop listening to it.

alright, so i'm not getting to this as regularly as i thought i might, but oh well. them's the breaks. new mix.

1 - Saw Fist Tree - Antebellum Estate
2 - Stephen Malmus - Vague Space
3 - Young Jazz Rebels (Madlib) - Miss K
4 - Taj Mahal - She Caught the Katy (and Left Me a Mule to Ride)
5 - The Dutchess and the Duke - Reservoir Park
6 - Yusef Lateef - Raymond Winchester
7 - Honey Cone - Girls, It Ain't Easy
8 - Destroyer - Rereading the Marble Faun
9 - Stephen Malkmus (again?!) - Church on White
10 - Frank Sinatra - Fly Me To The Moon (i have a hunch my sister downloaded this)
11 - Talking Heads - Life During Wartime
12 - Q-Tip - Do You Dig U?
13 - Vetiver - At Forest Edge
14 - Bob Dylan - Desolation Row
15 - The Delfonics - La-La (Means I Love You)

damn. this one turned out pretty well. except for that sinatra track that i'm not really a fan of, this one is solid.

wait, that's a white guy?

alright, so i should say that this isn't a big surprise to anyone. this mayer hawthorne guy, as far as i can tell, is blowing his load all over the place these days. so i'm going to sound as if i missed the boat. and, though that's usually the case, let me explain why i'm putting him in this part of the blog.

i was at a bar a few weeks ago. i hadn't heard this song yet. and then it came over the speakers and i swear i thought that it was a delfonics song that i'd somehow missed my entire life. so i had my friend, who has one of those 'tell me what song this is' programs on his iphone figure it out for me. i saw the name. hadn't heard of the guy. so i got home, dug in my pockets for the collection of little notes and thoughts i invariably write down and collect on napkins each time i'm at a bar, and looked him up. low and behold, he's a white guy. not the delfonics.
