Booker T. & the MGs "Jelly Bread" The Complete Stax-Volt Singles 1959-1968
bonus
Yo La Tengo "Let's Be Still" Summer Sun
And iTunes plays a little joke, for after popping 5 of the first 10 songs at two-and-a-half-minutes or less, it pulls a plus ten minute cut for a bonus. It also shows its range. Special props for a driving anti-Iraq War song to start, a post-punk classic from Kim Deal and the gang, and the always welcome instrumental stylings of Booker Jones and his gang.
