I agree. Around that time I also loved John Foxx's Metamatic LP.

I haven't heard anything from The Mountain Goats, but aside from that, you can't really go wrong with any of those tracks. As much as I love Hendrix's 'rock' material, he was at his best playing the blues, IMO. A double thumbs-up for Mississippi John Hurt and the Jungle Brothers, too. I can't remember which album that Jungle Brothers song is from, but "Done By The Forces Of Nature" is one of my favourites from that era of hip-hop. Awesome stuff.

"For Pete's Sake" by Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth (from "Mecca And The Soul Brother")
"Dual Mr. Tillman Anthony" by Miles Davis (from "Water Babies")
"Uh Huh" by Hank Mobley (from "Workout")
"Oh Red" by Count Basie (from "The Complete Decca Recordings")
"Ching Miau" by Yusef Lateef (from "Eastern Sounds")
"Butch And Butch" by Oliver Nelson (from "The Blues And The Abstract Truth")
"Immaculate Deception" by Joe Henderson (from "The Milestone Years")
"Papa Was Too" by Joe Tex (from "25 All Time Greatest Hits")
"Lilia" by Wayne Shorter (from "Native Dancer")
"Bags' Groove" by The Oscar Peterson Trio (from "Night Train")

Believe me, jazz isn't all I have on my computer, this was just a really lucky list.

Tough choice for a favourite, but I'm in more of a mood for funk tonight, so I'll say Joe Tex.

I'm at the mercy of Wayfarer, following this shuffle (once more)... blues is one of the shortfalls in my collection though I do like vaudeville and 30's/40's music and doo-wop, I even like Manhattan Transfer though I feel now this is pointless to explain so...

One In Ten - UB40 - Present Arms In Dub
Kid - THE PRETENDERS - Break Up The Concrete
Lost Mi Love - YELLOWMAN - Mister Yellowman
Don't Turn Around - ASWAD - Ultimate 80's: Disc 4
Deathwish - THE POLICE - Messages In A Box
The Boy From New York City - DARTS - 100 Hits: The 70's - Disc 1
Lonely Boy - SEX PISTOLS - The Great Rock And Roll Swindle
If I Never See You Again - WET WET WET - Now That's What I Call Music 37
Dirty Frank - PEARL JAM - Ten
Heroes - DAVID BOWIE - Best Of Bowie

Jakob Dylan - Truth For A Truth
Pete Seeger - Where Have All The Flowers Gone?
Hank Williams - Fly Trouble
Neil Young - Southern Man
The Coral - Boy At The Window
Neil Young - Only Love Can Break Your Heart
Beck - Profanity Prayers
Nirvana - Rape Me
Johnny Cash - Jackson
The Black Keys - Lies

Great guitar solo.

Some really awesome stuff on this shuffle. Great David Byrne, QotSA, and Captain Beefheart in particular, although there's nothing I dislike on your shuffle. Noice!

Snowglobe - Muse
Trey Anastasio Band - Bug
The Magnetic Fields - My Sentimental Melody
Tom Waits - Bride Of Rain Dog
Genesis - In the Rapids
Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - Well
Soft Machine - Out-Bloody-Rageous
Charles Mingus - Reincarnation of a Lovebird
Karl Blau - Notion
Leo Kottke & Mike Gordon - Balloon

I really couldn't pick just one I loved from this shuffle.

I'm definitely going to get hold of some Magnetic Fields... I have only ever had the one song (100,000 Fireflies)...

"Sister Ray" / The Velvet Underground (White Light/White Heat)
"Rabid (Over You)" / The Damned (The Black Album)
"Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" / Led Zeppelin (Mothership)
"Born Traveller" / Eek-A-Mouse (Mouse-A-Mania)
"Titanium Expose" / Sonic Youth (Goo)
"On The Wheel" / Curve (The Way Of Curve)
"There's A World Outside" / Psychedelic Furs (Greatest Hits)
"Dream A Lie" / UB40 (The Best Of UB40: Volume One)
"My Babe" / The Fabulous Thunderbirds (Collection)
"I Want To Be Free (To Be With Him)" / Scarlet (Naked)

Until the Scarlet track came up, I'd have gone for the Furs song but... I really love the Scarlet song, a stand-out from a mediocre debut album.

I have downloaded The Wayward Bus & Plastic Trees (Magnetic Fields) also something called 69 Love Songs of which I have heard a few songs already - interesting stuff!

Some good stuff there, i'm a big fan of Sonic Youth and The Velvet Underground. I've been meaning to get into Curve and The Psychedelic furs and I probably will do so soon enough, I've only heard some of their stuff. Apart from Led Zeppelin and The Damned i'm not really familiar with the rest.
