The key thing to the whole iPod system is the Shuffle. Whatever mechanism shuffles these songs into a playlist is a master of styles and BPM. The trick is to load your library with everything you enjoy hearing - even the odd Christmas tune or Irish drinking song - and let the computer take over. At least that works for those of us without the time or discipline to create our own playlists. So for our Vermont trip -
Mission Of Burma - “The Obliterati” which is the new one that somehow got removed from my library, “Peking Spring” - the EP and “Forget”. They are the greatest band in the world.
Radio 4 - “Gotham”
Sound Tribe Sector Nine - “Artifact”
Lo Fidelity Allstars - “How to Operate With A Blown Mind”
Gin Blossoms - “New Miserable Experience” I like this album - but I hate this band. Because - as I heard it - when the songwriter (wrote all the hits) and guitarist was in the throes of drepression and alcoholism as the album hit, they convinced him to sign away his rights and royalties. That pretty much sucks.
Live - The best of “Mental Jewelry” and “Throwing Copper”
Green Day - A mix of the hits my son made for me.
Also various singles by David Bowie, Cracker, Material Issue, and Kitchens Of Distinction.
The count is now 6,726 or 20.3 days of music. Let’s go for a full month…
