The BBC recording of The Jimi Hendrix Experience jamming on an instrumental take of Stevie Wonder's "I Was Made To Love Her" features none other than Stevie himself sitting in on drums. Preceding that on this mix is his sweet "Thank You (For Loving Me All The Way)" from when he was called Little Stevie Wonder.
Das EFX's golden age hip hop classic "Dum Dums" wittily samples Otis Redding's "Happy Song (Dum Dum)".
Other songs on this mix from a couple years ago: the funky "Time Has Come Today" by The Chambers Brothers, the giddy "Beautiful Girls" by Van Halen, Dizzie Gillespie's fanciful "In The Land Of Oo-Bla-Dee", the crunchy "You're Such A Wire" by Frank Black & The Catholics, the sleazy "Tops" by The Rolling Stones, Donovan Carless' jaunty reggae take of William DeVaughn's "Be Thankful For What You Got", the laid back "5 Ela (remix)" by Slum Village, Electralane's pretty "To The East", the bicycle horn-infused "Molly's Lips" by The Vaselines, Gang Starr's swirling "Flip The Script", Robert John's rollerskating slow jam "Sad Eyes", Karen Dalton's gentle "How Did The Feeling Feel To You", Amy Winehouse's "You Know I'm Know Good" remixed with raps by Ghostface Killah, the innocent "That's Not Me" by The Beach Boys, the majestic "Sun King" by The Beatles, a drawn out live version of "Summer Madness" by Kool & The Gang, the sly "MHBs" by Quasimoto, the gorgeous "More Love" by Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, and the wistful "Just Walkin' In The Rain" by The Prisonaires.
