With the recent Paul McCartney concert and Guardians of the Galaxy premiere, I have had a Seventies dance party swirling around in my head. I created a new mix including the tunes from “Awesome Mix Vol I” and those I think Star-Lord should have on Vol II.

or on Spotify: Guardians of the Galaxy Awesome Playlist Vol I & II
Enjoy the earworms!
The sun is out, the snow has mostly melted and spring is trying to take hold…and today I wanted to listen to some fun oldies from I mix I made in 1998.
A Hint of Disco and a Dash of Funk (1998)
I had a sudden hankering for some classic rock and the voices of Ian Hunter, Eric Burdon and Rod Argent, so I dug out an old set of mixes, “When Vinyl Ruled” Plus, I still think Mott the Hoople is an awesome band name. Sadly, most songs are not in the Spotify database so there is no point sharing the link.
I finally started playing with Spotify and will be uploading my too many playlist slowly.
“Keeping The Current” Vol 1 is the first of a series of playlists I made right after SXSW 2010 when I could not get enough Spoon, The Hold Steady, Free Energy, Blitzen Trapper and others. This playlist seems relevant again as The Hold Steady has a new album out tomorrow and I will be seeing Blitzen Trapper and Drive-by Truckers live again this week.
The playlist reminds me of being at Stubbs in Austin, TX at the very back of the outdoor venue sitting on a boulder so I could rest my soon-to-be-replaced hip when some random dude came and sat by me and started to talk but then fell over and laid on the ground for a while before his friends finally came to retrieve him. I have a way with the dudes.
