Half-Cocked: Friday Random Play

July 15, 2005

Again, taking all the albums (300 or so) I have in my Rhapsody playlist, loading them to play and hitting shuffle.

Please - Nine Inch Nails: Never heard it before. Sounds like it belongs on Pretty Hate Machine
The Kill - Joy Division: Is this going to be the all Goth kid self-hating random play?
Can't Stop It - Bad Religion: From their hyper-political 2002 album, "The Process of Belief."
Don't Worry about the Government - Talking Heads: Excellent, way old-school stuff.
Earlier than Expected - The Posies: I've never heard this because I never go further than three songs into the album. "Dream All Day" is why I listen to this tape.
Quasi una Fantasia (String Quartet No. 2, Op. 64) - Kronos Quartet: Kronos performing one of Henryk Górecki's string quartets in a very straight manner.
Gates of Eden - Bob Dylan: An accoustic song off the much-reviled first electric record.
Undertaker - Pussy Galore: Filthy dirty raw Jon Spencer before he discovered "the blues."
Pele Merengue - Luscious Jackson: I wish I still had my pink-marbled vinyl copy of this record.
Bluebird - Kasey Chambers: Haven't heard this yet because the reviews were so negative suggesting Kasey had gone Nashville but this isn't too different from her older stuff.

I don't know any of these songs. I know a few of the artists, but none of the songs.
