Tunes

There's a nice stack of cd's gathering next to my desk while I've been working today. Warts and all it goes a little something like this:

DANDY WARHOLS: COME DOWN
DANDY WARHOLS: 13 TALES FROM URBAN BOHEMIA
JAMES BROWN: SEX MACHINE/THE VERY BEST OF..
COUNT BASIE: JUMPIN' AT THE WOODSIDE (LIVE)
BIG TOWN PLAYBOYS: NOW APPEARING
PRODIGY: THE FAT OF THE LAND
PORTISHEAD: DUMMY
THELONIOUS MONK: KEN BURNS' DEFINITIVE
GEORGE WASHINGTON: THE TWANG DYNASTY
OSCAR PETERSON TRIO: NIGHT TRAIN
COUNT BASIE: JAZZ MOODS/HOT
DINAH WASHINGTON: THE SWINGIN' MISS D
WYNTON MARSALIS: BIG TRAIN
BENNY GOODMAN & HIS ORCHESTRA: RIDIN' HIGH
LEE PRESS-ON & THE NAILS: SWING IS DEAD
STONE ROSES: SECOND COMING
LOUIS ARMSTRONG MEETS OSCAR PETERSON
RAY BEADLE: THE GOOD LIFE
CRY BABY- SOUNDTRACK
PRODIGY PRESENTS: THE DIRTCHAMBER SESSIONS VOLUME ONE
PUBLIC ENEMY: IT TAKES A NATION OF MILLIONS TO HOLD US BACK
ROYAL CROWN REVUE: KINGS OF GANGSTER BOP
ICE-T: GREATEST HITS: EVIDENCE
FRANK SINATRA: SONGS FOR SWINGIN' LOVERS!

(on reflection no big surprises. Swing, bebop and hippity-hop with a splatter of indie-pop just for old skool value).

"GEORGE WASHINGTON: THE TWANG DYNASTY"
Should be "GEORGE WASHINGMACHINE".
Australian swing violin player, not Americas first president.
