Sunday Mini-Ick-Mix-Ness

A trip through a variety of tunes today…

To commemorate Paris Hilton’s first trip to the slammer, we start off with …

Steve Earle and the V-Roys - In the Jailhouse Now (mp3) - from Songs of Jimmie Rodgers: A Tribute

One of those songs that is perpetually in my head. “Sunday night and it’s half past nine…”

Bruce Cockburn - Northern Lights (mp3) - from Dancing in the Dragon’s Jaws

Heard this on the radio a few days ago for the first time in years. Excellent tune, great lyrics… it’s Cracker…

Cracker - Eurotrash Girl (mp3) - from Greatest Hits Redux

Upon hearing this song for the first time, my three year old daughter proclaimed: “This song scares me daddy”. Daddy turned it off. Another Italian film soundtrack that I heard on David Johansen’s Mansion of Fun.

Franco Ferrara & Goffredo Petrassi - Per Cercare Consolazione (mp3) - from Cronaca Familiare (Score)

A new tune from Sri Lankan hip hop lovin’ seductress M.I.A.

M.I.A. - Hit That (mp3) - unreleased, see her wacked out MySpace page

An old school joint from Masta Ace…

Masta Ace - Born to Roll (mp3) - from Sittin’ on Chrome

To finish it off, a beautiful tune by da Cope….

Citizen Cope - Sideways (mp3) - from The Clarence Greenwood Recordings
