As Noby previously suggested, it'd be handiest if Jebus could collate them in entirety and send the list to all of us at once. Alternatively, the baton/list could each week be forwarded, in a symbolic gesture of control, as one's turn arrives.Quote:

By the way, your cover looks deadly Raptor. Certainly not a candidate for the 'worst album covers' thread!

Well Jebus Cd arrived y-day. had a quick listen and I'm pretty impressed on the whole. I can see this CD getting a fair bit of airtime around my place. track 10 is an old old favorite of mine that I hadn't heard in years so thanks for that (I've been humming it all morning)
Since y'all seem to have the CD by now I'll throw up the playlist for people wondering what was on it
The Shins - Turn On Me
Nico - These Days
Nightmares On Wax - Morse
Sebastian Tellier - La Ritournelle
Goldfrapp - Ooh La La
The Clash - Bankrobber
Sly and the Family Stone - Skin I'm In
Chet Baker - Mr B
Stevie Wonder - Happier Than The Morning Sun
Nina Simone - O-O-H Child
Big 5 - Monkey Man
Paul Simon - Me and Julio Down By The Schoolyard
We're From Barcelona - I'm From Barcelona
Yo La Tengo - Season Of The Shark
Supergrass - St Petersburg
Kings Of Convenience - Winning a Battle, Losing The War
Trespasser Williams - Vapour Trail
Ali Farke Toure - N'Jarou
Tom Waits - Flower's Grave
Pick of the songs for me is Vapour Trail by Trespasser Williams, absolutely love that track
I love the songs in bold....dunno many of the othersQuote:

Don't know the josh ritter and bell x1 track so not sure, its a female vocalist on this one though
eh quick google reveals it isnt...
Jebus you seem to have a predilection for songs with the lyrics LA LA LA or NA NA NA in them, (not a criticism, just an observation)
Am guessing from BGR's post that the Vapour Trail tune is actually a cover of the Ride classic? Hope so anyway.
Halfway through it now (other half on the way home from work) and it sounds great so far jebus. Lot of tunes I didn't know which is the point of a mix CD I think. Couple I won't be hearing again :p (thought I insisted on no jazz!) but that's good too. Excellent work! :cool:
half way through Jebus' CD right now. That stevie Wonder tune is excellent. Being a person who only listens to punk rock records recorded in 76 and 77 (or so the folklore amongst my friends goes :rolleyes: ) I'd never heard it before.
I'd recommend picking up Stevie's Music of my Mind so Lionel, top notch songs from start to finishQuote:

Exasperatingly, I recently lost access to decks, and also those fancy types-the-tracks-on-the-CD printers. The Hoop Flop could've cleared that bar! Alas a paucity of glossy fripperies won't now distract from my woeful song-selecting abilities.Quote:

Jebus (perhaps realising we'd quickly tire of his mix) used re-writeable CDs so if your CD player is pretty old it mightn't recognise the CD's newfangled complexion. Your computer should though, so maybe burn the CD on to your computer, whence burn an ordinary CD-R. I'd imagine that's the problem. Of course Jebus could have pulled a fast one by sending you a dud. :)Quote:

So, you'll note, Volume 6 and onwards haven't been 'bagsed'. Shur we'll put you down for the sixth seeing as though you raised the topic, and the deadline may help to give focus to your pondering. I'll nominate myself for seventh so then I suppose.Quote:

Week six is fine btw.
Week 7 it is for me then.
Tom Waits tune is top notch as well.
I suppose that makes me 8!
Well yeah of course I want one. ;)Quote:

7...14th July

Oh there are alright. The confusion may stem from Lionel Ritchie boldly shouldering me off the roster this morning. :D I want that lucky seventh spot back damn you! (clever joke about too long a post welcome :))Quote:

Mine may well be a box set by the time I'm finished.
A normal CD-R is 70 mins yeah?
Just got Raptor's CD, haven't had a listen to it but the track listing is pretty promising! Surprise 80's track is a winner
Did it get sorted? I'll burn a new one and post out to you again if notQuote:

still it gives me a 3 track head start for next time
Ah come on, jazz is awful! Nah, I like a lot of it, especially the more modern electro stuff like St. Germain or the swingier end of things. But I don't much care for a lot of other, maybe purer, stuff at all to be honest. That's just me though. :)Quote:

I'm in two minds as to whether I should be planning my playlist already, or go for the last minute panic approach. Probably the latter, knowing me.
I quite liked Jebus' one - very laid back for these sunny days (although I think I may have skipped half way through 'that' song)
