musical meme

This meme comes from Bookish Gardener. It’s fun to trace it back and discover previously unknown blogs (and music).

Random Ten
Gillian Welch, “I Dreamed a Highway”
Bob Dylan, “Lonesome Day Blues”
Grateful Dead, “St Stephen”
Talking Heads, “Take me to the River”
The Supremes, “You Can’t Hurry Love”
Duke Ellington, “Diminuendo and Crescendo in Blue”
James Talley, “W Lee O’Daniel Played All Night”
Mamas and Papas, “This is Dedicated to the One I Love”
Whiskeytown, “A Song for You”
Wilson Picket, “Land of a Thousand Dances”

The number of music files on my computer is:
Zero. I must be the last person in America who still buys pre-recorded CDs.

Last album I purchased was:
The Ballad of Ramblin’ Jack

Last song I listened to before this message was:
John Lee Hooker, “Ground Hog Blues” on KERA radio

Five songs that I listen to a lot are:
Gillian Welch, “Beulah Land”
The Byrds, “Hickory Wind”
Patsy Cline, “Back in Baby’s Arms”
Bob Dylan, “It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry”
Norman Greenbaum, “Spirit in the Sky”

    ok. I’ll bite. I listened to Neil Young’s Harvest 3 times today. Considering this blog, I would listen to CSNY”s–Crosby Stills Nash and Young’s–Back to the Garden–from their de ja vu album of 1970. But I don’t have it in my changer right now. A photo needs to go with every entry. memes memes memes– themes.

    Bill, I’m in the same class as you are- I don’t have any music on my computer. I have the iTunes program on my computer but have yet to figure out how to use it. An iPod? - forget it! My music listening extends to Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman on my CD player - I play their CD’s all day when I’m home. My son gave me a DVD player for Christmas & set it up to my TV - I still haven’t figured out how to use it- it’s not a matter of putting in A DVD & pushing ONE button- there are 10 pages of instructions in the manual!!!!

    I like your jukebox! Yes, I think the best thing about this meme is wandering back through the links to see other blogs and other songs. Cheers!

    Well I am also in the uninitiated. I buy my music in CD form and play them in a cd player or the computer.

    Must be my age.

    Gillian Welch was actually mentioned in a textbook that I use for class! Don’t worry; you are not the only one still using CDs. I assure you.

    Wilson Pickett…yes, yes, yes. :)
