10-08-15: You Take Pain Out Of Hurt And Heal The Wound

Only one song repeats on this mix, and it's essentially a part 1 and 2 of the same song, "I Wish I Had Died In Egyptland" by Jessie Johnson And His Singers.

14KT's J Dilla homage "Without Dilla (Donut 4 Dilla)" samples The Moments' "Not On The Outside", both featured here.

A Tribe Called Quest's "Mr. Muhammad" samples Earth, Wind & Fire's "Brazilian Rhythm (interlude)", both featured here.

The rest: Sun Ra's eerie "It's After The End Of The World",  Tom Waits' jazzy "Such A Scream". Suicide's haunting "I Remember", Greg Mason's synth-heavy "What Does It Take To Know (A Woman Like You)", my edit of underground heroes Binary Star's philosophic "Evolution Of Man" featuring One Be Low & Brenda J, Willie Hutch's soundtrack piece "Brother's Gonna Work It Out" from the 1973 film The Mack, Ed Lang's guitar instrumental "A Little Love, A Little Kiss" from 1927, Jose Felician's cover of The Beatles' "Hey Jude", Francois' ethereal "Swimmers/Drifters", Bobbie Gentry's sultry "Thunder In The Afternoon", Scott Walker's cover of Bill Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine", Black Star's wise "Thieves In The Night", the languid "Jolene On The Freeway" by Kostars, Ann-Margret's version of the Sondheim standard "Let Me Entertain You", Cat Power's version of Jackson Browne's standard "These Days" and Billy Stewart's version of the Wizard Of Oz standard "Somewhere Over The Rainbow".
