MP3 & Playlist for Lost & Found, 05/12/08

sitting on a fence
a mighty collaborative

Last Stand at the Lunch Counter



33 nickels. My pockets are heavy with them. Let's stack them on the counter and make each one a song. Load up the box and clear back the tables, we've got just 2 hours before I have to go away ... yet the day is young. I don't care what you play, all the heavy soul, slashing garage, mellow pop and gritty blues that juke's got to offer. Just drop a coin in the hole in the soul below, and take my hand.

And if you really need to look, all the songs are just beneath the glass, strips of text that will clear up any reservations you might have. Now, let's dance. My time is short.

you can't sit down
cold sweat

Undercover in an Opium Den



Look at yourself, friend. Dark around the eyes and you haven't shaved in at least 3 days. You're sweating, even though it's cool in here. You've got the hunger, and it shows in your eyes. Hey, I'm no cop - I'm here to help. I've got what you need, and it's the real dope. What do you want - deep soul? hard rock? soft folk with a rockabilly chaser? It's all right in front of you. Just tap on that Fourth Dimension 45 below to open the door to satisfaction ... and close the book on this jones of yours.

And if you find the trip a little too much, if your mind is in a fog and you need direction, just check that playlist further down to help keep your feet planted firmly on the ground.

skating crossovers
better than any list

Deep Feeling



When the game's on the line and we're living on the clock,
we have to work together and keep everyone involved, a complete team effort. Tic-tac-toe we pass between finger poppin' soul and moody garage, shredding guitars drop off to easy keys, and together we use the full 2 hours to score our goal: pure aural satisfaction. And we did it together, as a team. They can't ever take that away from us.

To drop the puck and join the game, just click on the blue onion below. Lace 'em up tight, have an easy grip on your stick, and keep an open mind. And always remember your playbook just a little further down, to keep up with the action.

son of the man Chan
nobody's born that way

Taking It On the Chin



Ok, so maybe I am a little punchy. But I'm not just swinging blind here, chum. I'm not so dazed that I can't pick out the light in the shadows. Try closing your eyes, pal - and just listen. Stay that way for 2 hours and see if you don't find yourself agreeing with me. Just tap on that Buckley kid's eyebrow down below and we'll be underway. 12 rounds of soulful psych, moody folk, ambitious rock and general horseplay - but always above the belt.

Just check your fight card a little further down to get all the dope on these palookas. No cigar smoking, please.
