Otis Redding "Chained and Bound" The Complete Stax-Volt Singles 1959-1968
We went over 20,000 cuts in iTunes last week (thanks, Amoeba!) and this list, while not always full of stellar cuts, certainly exhibits the range of what goes on in the collection. And "Maybe Sparrow" has to be one of my favorite songs of the aughts.

Ah, George, now don't go bragging about your Holmesian collection again, especially after Fox Confessor was among the albums lost when I was cut down to an angry inch. But this isn't a bad list (with a couple of Ahab contributions) at all. I know it's not Friday, but it's a holiday weekend, so sorry this is late and lazy.
