Completely forgot to play some Bobby Short this morning. Mostly cos I just forgot. Altho I was distracted for about half the show trying to track down Synchro Series, the King Sunny Adé CD that's on playlist. Was nowhere to be found until I finally spotted it shelved with the African compilation CDs. doh! But at least I found it and got to end my show with a nice 18 minute slice of juju.
(Bill, saw yr request but didn't bring the Washboard Jungle CD with me and god knows XDU doesn't have a copy. next time for sure...)
Having my show on in primetime is nice and all but I do occasionally miss the 7-9am shifts. It's a fun way to start the day. Plus it's an excuse to play songs like "Woke Up This Morning" and "Sharkey's Day" and "V-13" (good morning, Sodom and Gomorrah... good morning sinners)
And in case y'all missed this on boing boing, MIA vs. Super Mario Bros!!
