I don't care 'bout anything of these ones.
I'd rather if the list includes Velvet Underground and Bowie

Thanks! Groovin' with Mr Bloe is a tune I heard years ago and could never ever track down, until now, by chance (I didn't know song title or artist). Always reminded me of The Housemartin's "The Mighty Ship".

I've Been A Bad, Bad Boy - Paul Jones

This track was sited by Simon Goddard as an influence for Pretty Girls Make Graves in a Record Collector article a few years back - it features the lines "I'm not the man you think I am"

Nice collection to listen to. Is there any way of downloading the tracks from Spotify?

You can buy the tracks with a link for doing such, which all but three of those do.
Otherwise, I don't know, I'm sure someone has figured out a way of capturing songs off there. There's always the possibility of capturing the sound directly from your sound card, although that would be a little tedious, I'd imagine...

Wait, no "Mr. Blobby"? I have to say, I'm rather surprised.

For those who live in countries without Spotify (like me), I put together a youtube playlist:

That's so cool. THanks not_me_not_I.

I liked hearing a Buffy Sainte-Marie song that I hadn't heard before.

This is my favourite by her:



(really bad sound quality on the youtube.)

You should watch the film "Soldier Blue"..

I've not heard of it. Good?

Is that where the song comes from?

Yes and yes..It's a western but could easily be a black comedy.

Apropos Spotify playlists, here's one I put together earlier this year, of all of Morrissey's intermission music (or what of it is available on Spotify anyway) from 91 to 09, more or less chronologically: http://open.spotify.com/user/decontrol/playlist/4jDVUPLIUbgSNN4RwJByBV

There might be some stuff that's become available since then though. Groovin' With Mr. Bloe wasn't there yet when I compiled it, for instance.

 

[Uncleskinny]

May I point out that the harmonica in Groovin' With Mr Bloe does, at certain points, sound very much like the harmonica intro to Still Ill.

Ta,
