Gettin' Tighter- Deep Purple
(I always thought the one Deep Purple record with Tommy Bolin got a bad rap.)

This Old World Is Going Down- Modulations
(It sure is. And it's taking me with it.)

Always Accused- Willie Tee
(One of two in this mix that I read about in John Broven's book "Rhythm & Blues In New Orleans." I've finished the book, so most likely finished sharing tracks from it.)

Suspect My Tears- Elvis Costello & The Imposters
(E.C. was playing this live for years before it appeared on "Look Now." I loved it then and I love it now.)

Gee Baby- Joe & Ann
(Here's the other NOLA cut.)

Leave My Girl Alone- The Everly Brothers
(Phil & Don getting very "girl group" on this one.)

Sonic Reducer- Dead Boys 
(Turn it up loud. It'll do you good.)

Never heard Willie’s Songbird. Nice one, thanks.

Willie Tee deserves to be renowned if for no other reason than the work he did on the first Wild Magnolias album.
