Friday Filler

Kathy at Freshman44 uncorked a Friday meme - Put your iPod (in my case, a Creative Nomad Zen Xtra) on “shuffle” mode, and list the first 10 songs with a color in the title.  This kind of thing is fraught with danger, as it may reveal some really lame stuff with your fingerprints on it.  OK, deep breath…here goes:



  • That Old Black Magic - Glenn Miller (Shut up! I like Big Band music)
  • Green Dolphin Street - Miles Davis (the ‘58 Sessions)
  • Blood Red River - Beth Orton (Central Reservation)
  • Ivory Tower - Garaj Mahal (live recording - they’re a west coast acid jazz act we’ve seen a couple of times)
  • Carmen Ohio - The Ohio State Marching Band (I’m playing on the recording)
  • Orange Moon - Erykah Badu (Mama’s Gun)
  • Green Earrings - Steely Dan (Live In America)
  • Gold In The Air Of Summer - Kings Of Convenience
  • Blues Part II - Blood, Sweat & Tears
  • You Blues - Juliana Hatfield (Only Everything)

Bonus Tracks:



  • Black Cat - Starlight Mints
  • Yellow - Coldplay (Parachutes)
  • Black Milk - Massive Attack (Mezzanine)
  • Black Cow - Steely Dan (Aja)

Then my fingers got tired.
