It’s been a long time since I rapped at ya, but either wordpress or my trusty HP laptop has been failing me. Or maybe it’s the beginning of the robot revolution. Whichever, it seems to have relented enough to post a Wednesday playlist. Just don’t blame me if your headphones try to strangle you tonight. At least you’ll have a good soundtrack to go out on.
Astrud Gilberto. How I love her voice. Can you believe that they almost didn’t use her as a singer? Just because of a tiny tendency to go a bit sharp. Whatever dudes. At least you made the right decision in the end.
Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars)
Pittsburgh favorites, The Harlan Twins. Nice job with this one, Carrie Battle (also of Juston Stens & the Get Real Gang fame (of Dr. Dog fame (how many nested sets of parentheses can one sentence legally have?)))
Angie Mattson. LA former model and she of the smoky dark voice. Love the guitar tone in this one.
Mary
Wanda Jackson. Because, Wanda Jackson! She can kick Elvis’s ass any day. Rock Your Baby
And Samantha Crain. Just cause. Religious Wind
