Friday Ten

Posted on 12/30/2004 by Terrance

It’s Friday. That means it’s time for another ten random tunes.

The drill:

  1. Start your MP3 player.
  2. Put your whole collection on random play.
  3. List the first ten songs that play.

Here we go.

  1. A Nightengale Sang in Berkeley Square – The Manhattan Transfer – Vocalese
  2. The Name of the Game – Abba – Abba Gold
  3. Do I Ever Cross Your Mind – Ray Charles & Bonnie Raitt – Genius Loves Company
  4. Sufism – Zeb – Buddha Bar III
  5. 7 – Prince – The Hits/B Sides
  6. California Dreaming – DJ Sammy – Heaven
  7. Baba Hanunman (Dub Farm Remix) – Krishna Das – Earth ‘n’ Bass
  8. Killing Me Softly – Roberta Flack – Softly With These Songs
  9. Alla That’s Alright, But – Sweet Honey in the Rock – The Women Gather
  10. If You Knew/Let It Be Me – Nina Simone – Let It Be Me

Also, thanks to ej’s post on the 12 essential cds of 2004, I’ve made good on my new music resolution with the purchase of Introducing Tortured Soul by Tortured Soul. Just the snippets I heard on iTunes were enough to convince me to check it out. I’ll be giving it a good hard listen, and will post a review sometime in January.

    Re: Joey and Faithless — excellent choice. Faithless is one of my personal favorite modern electronica acts. Really, really good stuff.
