The Tenth Ten Commandments

Glops, a weird bunch this time!
But typing "the tenth ten" was also a kinda strange,
so what the heck!
Maybe some of it is indeed a little bit "out there"
for some ears, but it's all good!
And if you (or your ears) don't agree, well, than it's just me...
here we go:
1. Alela Diane - Pirate's Gospel (2:55)
2. Mike Keneally Band - This Tastes Like A Hotel (15:15)
3. Nathaniel Mayer - I Found Out (4:04)
4. Pirates - Cuttin' Out (1:58)
5. Prelapse - Alarms (3:28)
6. Rodriguez - Sugar Man (3:48)
7. Sons And Daughters - Medicine (2:11)
8. Tapes 'N Tapes - Insistor (4:20)
9. Twyker-Klimek-Heil - Wintersleepers (8:51)

The Ninth Ten Commandments

As promised, 10 new songs with a mellow feel to them.

An old and a new version of the fact that people make the

world go round, a nice little (bootleg)version of Summertime

and a nice version of From A Whisper To A Scream.

(Though I prefer the one done by Allen Toussaint himself, maybe another time)

The first song I found on the OST from the TV series Six Feet Under.

If you have the chance to see the film the Fred Frith song is from,

(Step Across The Border) you're in for a nice (musical) trip!

The Seventh Ten Commandments

Hi.

Another 10 (very different) songs to keep you awake, to put you to sleep,

to totally rock ya minds or maybe just to make you wonder...


But they do the matter.


An instrumental version of Summertime included, one that brought all kinds of

muscular movements to my face, never knew I had that many muscles up there!


I just HAD to put a little gospel in there too, since this is the 7th one...

(but luckily I'm not the 7th son) along with something that reminded me

of the great Soft Machine 7 album.

(sadly the Viola Crayola only made 1 album).


And if you like that LONG song (from the trombone-man), don't hesitate for

a minute and buy that ECM album straightaway!


here's the tracklisting for this one:


1. Cedric 'Im Brooks - Satta - Masa - Ganna (7:10)

2. Earl Hines & Budd Johnson - Summertime (5:46)

3. Julian Priester - Prologue/Love, Love (19:22)

4. Nicole Willis - Gonna Get Yours (2:39)

5. Odetta & Holmes Brothers - 2 Little Fishes & Five Loaves (3:21)

6. Raconteurs - Blue Veins (4:03)

7. Viola Crayola - Mr Leroy, Pepe Is Lost (4:27)

8. Wah Wah Watson - Goo Goo Wah Wah (5:42)

9. William S. Fischer- Patience Is Virtue (4:49)

The Fifth Ten Commandments

For this one I stumbled upon a few gems in my collection I'm sure I couldn't live without, even in my next lifetime...or the one after that :-)
I know 'commandments' sound a bit biblical, but everyone's gotta live by some 'rules' I guess.
Mine are quite simple: when it's good, it's good.
My ears recieve, my mind divides, my body reacts, and those 3 leave me just where the music wants me to be: in the right place! (but, yeah, maybe in the wrong time...)

Anyways, here's another 10 (great) songs, including some early work of Fatboy Slim, the unforgettable sounds of Mark Sandman & Co., a little X-files theme I put in there with MC 900 FT Jesus myself and a great Michael Jackson work out...

Please buy all the Morphine albums you can get your hands on,
they are all GOOD, oh YES, they are a CURE FOR PAIN :-)

here's the tracklisting, so you'll be a little prepared for what's here to hear:

1. Earl Gaines - hymn n°5 (3:21)
2. Freddie King - San-Ho-Zay (2:33)
3. Fried Funk Food - Freak Of Da Week (6:41)
4. MC 900 Ft Jesus - Killer Inside Me (4:10)
5. Morphine - thursday (3:26)
6. Nine - famaldahyde (4:15)
7. Ray-O-Vacs- besame mucho (2:49)
8. Roberta Flack - Go Up Moses (5:23)
9. Senor Coconut - BEAT IT (Merengue) (3:55)
10. Zita Swoon - Hot Hotter Hottest (4:47)
