As I have so many times before I made my Dad a CD yesterday. Or, rather, I compiled a playlist; I neglected to get a CD writer in my lastest computer — I simply never burn anything anymore — so my brother had to burn the CD. Thanks Andrew!
Here’s the playlist:
- Holly Golightly . “A Length of Pipe”
- Angels Of Light & Akron Family . “I Pity The Poor Immigrant”
- Dan Auerbach . “Heartbroken, In Disrepair”
- Elliott Brood . “Jackson”
- Damien Jurado . “Everything Trying”
- William Elliott Whitmore . “Johnny Law”
- Avett Brothers . “The Ballad Of Love And Hate”
- Detroit Cobras . “The Real Thing”
- Regina Spektor . “Field Below”
- Rural Alberta Advantage . “Rush Apart”
- Great Lake Swimmers . “Still”
- Bishop Allen . “True Or False”
- Alela Diane . “White As Diamonds”
- Metric . “Gimme Sympathy (acoustic)”
- Wye Oak . “For Prayer”
- Neko Case . “Middle Cyclone”
He will, as usual, love the Damien Jurado and William Elliot Whitmore songs. He’ll probably like the Dan Auerbach, Neko Case and Angels of Light & Akron Family. Not sure how he’ll feel about the Wye Oak or Bishop Allen, but I can’t just lob him softballs all the time, even if he is a senior now.
