This mix, number 605 in the series, leads with Rod Stewart's cover from the following year as well as the Stones' live recording from late 1969 from their album Get Yer Ya Ya's Out and a pair of punk covers: a 1978 cover by Rikki & The Last Days Of Earth and Walter Lure leading the Ramones on a 1984 version. Also here is the rarely heard and unreleased original version by the Stones with entirely different lyrics called "Did Everybody Pay Their Dues?"

"Smoke Rings" is a standard first recorded by The Mills Brothers in 1933. In addition to that here are versions by Les Paul & Mary Ford from 1952, Sam Cooke in 1963 and k.d. lang in 1997.

The rest: the sinister "Murder" by UGK, Kenneth Patchen's beat poem ""The Murder Of Two Men By A Young Kid Wearing Lemon Colored Gloves" with The Chamber Jazz Quartet, Freddie Gibbs with Madlib on the atmospheric "Palmolive" with Pusha T & Killa Mike, the anguished "Retarded" by The Afghan Whigs, the spacey "Umi Says" by Mos Def, the ethereal "Born Free" by Black Uhuru & Michael Rose, the funky "New York Electric Street Music" by Larry Young's Fuel, the full album version of  the mellow "Quiet Storm" by Smokey Robinson. a live cover of Robinson's "The Tracks Of My Tears" by Bob Dylan, the moody "Chains" by Torres and the forlorn "Empty Hearted Town" by Warren Zevon.

"Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)" is the closing song from Marvin Gaye's landmark 1971 album What's Going On and incorporates a little of the title track's chorus. A previous mix featured a live version by Gaye. This mix, #604 in the series, features his album version along with a medley of songs from that album, including Inner City Blues, by The Shirelles; a cover by 70s Belgian jazz-rock band Placebo; and a 1981 cover by Gil Scott-Heron with a rap imbedded within his version.

"Proud Mary" is a single released in January 1969 by Creedence Clearwater Revival from their second album Bayou Country. A previous mix featured a cover by Solomon Burke from the same year. This mix features the full album hit version by Ike & Tina Turner, as well as covers by The Voices Of East Harlem and Billy Paul.

One other song repeats on the mix: two different versions of "Religion" from Public Image Ltd's 1978 debut album First Issue, one with guitars and one all vocal. A previous mix featured a song called "I Say A Little Prayer For Religion" which is a mash up of these vocals against Burt Bacharach's pop standard "I Say A Little Prayer".

The version of "Good Night", written by John Lennon for Ringo Starr to sing, from the self-titled album by The Beatles (or the "White Album") includes the band harmonizing with Ringo's lead vocal and a guitar part by George Harrison.

The rest: a live cover of The Beatles' "Strawberry Fields Forever" by Odetta; a cover of Tears For Fears' "Head Over Heels" by Japanese Breakfast; the 1987 track "My Baby's Got Jet Lag" by I, Ludicrous; the paranoid 1984 single "Somebody's Watching Me" by Rockwell with back-up singing by Michael Jackson; the gory "Too Much Blood" by The Rolling Stones from the previous year; a teenaged Queen Latifah's fierce "Evil That Men Do" with KRS-One from her 1989 debut album All Hail The Queen, Kam's 1992 single "Still Got Love 4 'UM", Jay-Z's "Bring It On" from his 1996 debut Reasonable Doubt with Big Jaz & Sauce Money.
