Music-wise that is. Ruth had this meme<\/a> on her blog back in June, and I grabbed it then. I finally had time to do it this week so here it is. Very simply – run through a random playlist on your Ipod or other music player and post the result. Ruth put in links to YouTube posts of the songs on her list and I will do the same – if I can find them of course. <\/p>\n

I have a music player on my cell phone, but this list comes from my computer. When I think of the huge stereo we used to have it makes me laugh. I have all of our music ripped to the computer and with a really good set of Altec Lansing speakers it puts out a much better sound than the monstosity ever did. These songs are from a Media Player playlist labeled “General” which contains about 250 songs – a varied mix, mainly favorites of mine and set to play shuffled . Here we go.<\/p>\n

1. Back to the Island<\/a> by Leon Russell. I can’t find a live version of this song – this one is okay, but I would rather just see Leon myself. My friend Eileen and I used to listen to him by the hour when we were high school, which shows you he must be really<\/em> old. Larry and I got to see him in concert a couple years ago and he is still fantastic.<\/p>\n

2. These Arms of Mine<\/a> by Otis Redding. Probably my favorite of his songs – except for all the rest of them of course.<\/p>\n

3. Shaky Ground<\/a> by Glenn Kaiser. Not a great video, but the only one I can find of this song. Cornerstone which Glenn helped found, holds a huge music festival in Illinois every summer – always great music coming out of there. <\/p>\n

4. Jackie Wilson Said<\/a> by Van Morrison. Do I need to say anything about Van Morrison? I don’t think so.<\/p>\n

5. Missing You<\/a> by Alison Kraus and John Waite. In my humble opinion, a much better collaboration than her album with Robert Plant.<\/p>\n

6. The Blood Will Never Lose it’s Power<\/a> by Selah. We’ve seen them in concert several times – love them. Sadly, both Nicole<\/a> and Todd<\/a> have lost a child this year – click on their names to visit their family blogs. <\/p>\n

7.Up On Cripple Creek<\/a> by The Band. In 1973, The Band, The Allman Brothers and The Grateful Dead all played at a little thing called “Summer Jam” in Watkins Glen NY. It is believed by many to be the largest gathering in the U.S., with over 600,000 attending. I was one of them. I got fired from my fabulous career as an A&W carhop because I called in sick to go. Another person who was there was Larry, but we didn’t know each other then. <\/p>\n

8. Why Do I Love You by Kelly Hunt. Not on YouTube, but you can go to her site here<\/a> and click on the audio player – it is the 8th tune on the list. I read about her on someone’s blog earlier this year and have been enjoying her music ever since. If it was your blog – thanks!<\/p>\n

9. There Is A Reason<\/a> by Alison Krauss and Union Station. Not surprising she would show up twice – I have lots of her music.<\/p>\n

10. Nobody’s Fault But Mine<\/a> by Nina Simone. I never get tired of listening to her.<\/p>\n

I’m not going to burden anyone with a tag for this one, but feel free to grab it if you like. Come back and tell me if you do – I love seeing what other people are listening to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
