This mix from last year is anchored by three versions of Bob Dylan's "A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall": one solo acoustic performance from 1963, another full band performance a dozen years later with The Rolling Thunder Revue and a cover by Leon Russell.
The other repeating song this week is Nirvana's "Breed", with a cover by Steve Earle.
Other stuff: Bob Marley & The Wailers with a live version of the righteous "Them Belly Full (But We Hungry)", Ike & Tina Turner's funky "Up In Heah", Nas' nostalgic "Where Are They Now", Charlie Parker's swinging "Mago Mague", Van Morrison's lilting "(Straight To Your Heart) Like A Cannon Ball, Fats Waller's playful "'Tain't What You Do (It's The Way That You Do It)", the poppy "Cannonball" by The Breeders, Ronnie Dee's raucous "Action Packed", a sped-up alternate take of "Respect" by Otis Redding, early rap from Brother D & The Collective Effort with "How We Gonna Make The Black Nation Rise", Dusty Springfield's soulful "Son Of A Preacher Man", De La Soul's spacey "Plug Tunin'", Nouvelle Vague's cover of Modern English's "I Melt With You", Stevie Wonder's sweeping "I'd Be A Fool Right Now", Amy Winehouse covering Sam Cooke's "Cupid", The Velvet Underground's sweet "I'm Sticking With You", and the romantic "Sleep Walk" by Santo & Johnny.
