11-15-12: Load Up On Guns, Bring Your Friends

"It Never Entered My Mind" is a show tune from the 1940 Rodgers and Hart musical Higher and Higher that soon became a jazz standard. This week's mix features versions by Frank Sinatra, Peggy Lee, Chet Baker, Stan Getz and The Miles Davis Quintet.

"I Can't Help It (I'm Still In Love With You" is a 1951 b side by Hank Williams. This week features versions by Johnny Cash, Cat Power, Willie Nelson and Isaac Hayes as well as the original.

One other song repeats this week: Karen Dalton's "Something On Your Mind", with a cover by Wall.

Jens Lekman's "Rocky Dennis' Farewell Song" samples "You Are Everything" by The Stylistics.

The rest: a cover of The Beatles' "Something" by James Brown, Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth's upbeat "Act Like You Know", the Vatican-themed "God's Banker" by DJ Muggs with Sick Jacken and Cynic, the melodic "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana, Tim Dog's fierce "Dog's Gonna Getcha", the  playful "Cockeyed Jenny" by Barton Brothers, the elegant "Imagine The Swan"  by The Zombies and the Wilco album outtake "Venus Stop The Train".
