"Rainin' Soul" : THE WEEKEND MIX (Late Edition)


Forgive the delay, loyal readers. I'd explain, but it's not worth it.

Enjoy this mix, built around Ann Peebles' greasey "Somebody's On Your Case," which I've been listening to on repeat, thanks to an original pressing on vinyl given to me by my pal Soundsource and inspired by the not so great, recently released biography of Little Willie John.

The crap weather helped a bit too, put me in a deep soul mood. Now I know this "WEEKEND MIX" isn't all "deep soul," but I think you'll find, it will work well with the rain.


Thanks for waiting.

Apropos of the lousy weather, here's my favorite "season" lyric, from the one and only Mr. Cleanhead, Eddie Vinson:
When it starts to getting winter
My head gets kinda cold
I try to grow a little hair
But I can't to save my soul
When it starts to getting summer
I get such a pretty tan
You can hear the women holler
Where do I find that Cleanhead man!

Given your evident taste, I am looking forward to hearing this.

As a music nut who has more music than he can ever listen to, I always enjoy these as a chance to maybe learn something new.

Rock on (and on and on)

Nice mix Sal -- Swamp Dogg is one crazy soul, ain't he?

Sounds great, Sal. Perfect for the upcoming 7 months of rain here at the end of the Oregon Trail. Thanks so much,
