Shake, Shake Mama- Mance Lipscomb
Talking about Mance last week made me want to listen to Mance. And you absolutely should watch Les Blank's brilliant documentary on Mance, "A Well Spent Life." You can watch it four times and it still would come in under "Killers Of The Flower Moon."
Black Night- Snooks Eaglin
With the New Orleans' Jazz Fest right around the corner, friends and I always discuss all of our faves that are no longer with us. The great Snooks Eaglin tops the list.
Bullshit- Grace Jones
I rave often about the Grace Jones trilogy that includes "Warm Leatherette," "Nightclubbing," and "Living My Life." This is from "Warm Leatherette."
Everybody's Falling In Love- World Party
Still hard to believe the great Karl Wallinger is gone. This one is one of his most recent "new" songs, and one that feels very much like Neil Finn to my ears.
Over The Hill- John Martyn
The Brothers Robinson do a fantastic cover of this in concert. Here's the terrific original from one of Martyn's best.
You Are Leaving Now- The Gaylads
Yeah yeah. Nothing to hear here. Just a great old reggae track from one of my favorite old reggae records. Move along.
Everybody's Talking About The All American- J.D. McPherson
As Christine said in the comments on a recent post, " No need for morning coffee if you listen to this first."

Looking forward to hearing these!
Good looking mix, Sal. The Snooks Eaglin song made me think that, somewhere in my basement, there is a box with a bunch of CD-Rs that I got in trades back in the day. And in that box are some Snooks Eaglin radio broadcasts. Got some Gatemouth Brown, too. I'm going to have to dig those out soon.
Have a great week ahead.
One of the best SOTW yet! Absolutely love the Gaylads!
Thanks again, Randy
Nice selection. Right up my alley. Thankyou.
