The Weekend Mix, 7/11/14



Woke up this morning, with those Burning Wood Weekend Mix Blues
I said, I woke up this morning with those, Burning Wood Weekend Mix Blues
I've lost my inspiration, can't find the heart to choose the tunes

Said I woke up this morning with that, gots to blog heavy feeling
Said I woke up this morning with that, gots to blog heavy feeling
Well my mind is in Ho-Ho-Kus and my head's in Aberdeen





I put together a 6 hour folder of music at the request of a friend, that was to be played during a 4th of July party. It was never used. I was looking at it this morning, desperate for something to post today and extracted this slightly under an hour collection of tunes that seems remarkably coherent.

Hoping to have my mojo back soon, but my gut feeling is that it has packed a much bigger bag than usual.

Still, you can't go wrong with a mix that inlcudes Big Star and The Left Banke. And The Beatles. (and Zombies)

The mojo comes and goes. Go through the cycle enough times and you stop worrying.

It might just be the All-Star break (a few days early).
Relax and enjoy it.

Thinking what you are thinking!
(Guy asks for a six hour mix . . . and doesn't use it?!?)

@Charlie

Guy: Just put it on any iDevice. I have the means to play anything.

I put it on an Ipod Shuffle.

Guy: Oh..can't play that on my system.

Sal,

I don't know if it helps or hurts but I laughed out loud when I read your comment.

As a friend of mine says ... "there are more horse's asses in this world than there are horses!"

I'm diggin' the mix -- thanks.

As you always do, looks like you delivered, Sal... and I don't know what "Daughter of Darkness" by Mr. Tom Jones could be about, but I do know I GOTS to hear it!!

Have a great weekend.

"Hoping to have my mojo back soon" Are you kidding? It's there; this is killer. "Daughter of Darkness" is worth the price of admission all by itself. It's been a long, hot, sweaty, and physical week and this looks like a perfect ending. Thanks.

Thanks Sal

Your tunes always make the weekend a little better even if some of them are a little out there, the mix is always good.

Thanks

So I get back from 2 weeks of sun, sea & sangria in the Canary Islands looking forward to catching up with the blog and what do I find? The first track of this mix is saying it all - It's All Over Now? Blimey, mate, that's sad news. Thanks for this mix & all that's gone before it.
