We start this mix from a year ago, appropriately enough, with "Alpha Omega (The Beginning)" by Mr. Nogatco, yet another Kool Keith alias. The only repeating song on this mix is Waylon Jennings' "Just To Satisfy You" which gets a full countrypolitan treatment from Glen Campbell.
Otherwise, it's the usual hodgepodge of stuff I like: Ben E. King's disco comeback "Supernatural Thing (Part 1)", the sweet "Maybe" by The Jackson Sisters, John Cougar Mellencamp's slightly defeatist "Jack & Diane", Human League's robotic "Don't You Want Me Baby", Lord Kitchener's swinging "Love In The Cemetery", A Tribe Called Quest's steamy "Hot Sex", Bobbie Gentry's gritty "Mississippi Delta", the tender "For You Blue" by The Beatles, Jack Rhodes & His Lone Star Buddies with the rollicking "Mama Loves Papa", the ebullient "Shine" by The Dallas String Band With Coley Jones, Pharoahe Monch's witty "What It Is", Billy Joel's dramatic "The Stranger", the original version of Todd Rundgren's "Hello, It's Me" by his old band The Nazz, Barbara Lewis' smooth "Spend A Little Time", Dani Sheridan's Glen Campbell cover "Guess I'm Dumb", a cover of Supertramp's "Breakfast In America" by Gomez, the delicate "Lady Jane" by The Rolling Stones, The Charles River Valley Boys covering "And You Bird Can Sing" by The Beatles, The Drifters' yearning "Up On The Roof", the romantic "Let's Fall In Love" by Duke Ellington with Johnny Hodges, and Etta James' anguished "All I Could Do Was Cry".
