Random, indeed. That's a terrifically Sweet cover of Vic, a fine Velvet Crush song from a sadly unknown album, the Roxy cut is one of their late period best even without Murray karaoke visions, and there's lots of loved artists, but it's not exactly the best list o' songs. Oh well.

Decent variety of recent stuff,here, though nothing tickles the nostalgia bones. (Well, I did remember fondly our night with the HBs, which I posted on awhile back.) Bends is still my favorite Radiohead album, George, and you've got a cool, eclectic list.

Thanks to George for the Logan, the ERQ and a near-miss on the ERP. And when it rains it pours, as I see a couple of my songs have broken through the iTunes blockade around Generik's list.
Funny how we were just bitching about that. Or I was, anyway. I have a strange power over iTunes.
