This mix from five years ago must have been made during great weather as it has three versions of "Grazing In The Grass", including the hit by The Friends Of Distinction as well as versions by Hugh Masekela and Stevie Wonder off his all instrumental album called Eivets Rednow.
Other stuff: a live version of "Dancing Days" by Led Zeppelin, the obscure "Dancing On A Daydream" by the delightfully named Soulvation Army, Ike and Tina Turner's epic "River Deep, Mountain High", George Benson's mellow "Give Me The Night", The Notorious B.I.G.'s anthemic "Mo Money Mo Problems", The Isley Brothers' chipper "Work To Do", and Jackson Browne's sly "Lawyers In Love".
James Brown's "Hot (I Need To Be Loved, Loved, Loved)" samples heavily from David Bowie's "Fame". It is preceded by Bowie's cool "Sound And Vision".
Rounding out the mix are: the scary "Rollin' Wit You" by Ol' Dirty Bastard, Donald Fagen's smooth I.G.Y., Joe Strummer And The Mescaleros with the uplifting "Johnny Appleseed", Prince with The Revolution on the hopeful "Take Me With U", Neil Young's catchy "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere", Patti Smith's spooky "Dancing Barefoot", Alice Coltrane's cover of her husband John's "A Love Supreme" and Yo La Tengo's sweet "You Can Have It All".
