It’s Friday!
You know what that means: It’s time for that weekly compilation of Randomized Musical Miscellany as barfed out by the iPod d’Elisson.

What’s playing? Lessee:
- Desafinado - Stan Getz & Charlie Byrd
From Jazz Samba, possibly the best-selling jazz album ever, and the opening salvo of the early 1960’s Bossa Nova movement. “A shimmering, graceful collection that’s as subtly advanced - in harmony and rhythm - as it is beautiful...absolutely essential for any jazz collection.” (Steve Huey) - Gangsters - The Specials
- Pressed Rat and Warthog - Cream
Pressed Rat and Warthog closed down their shop.
They didn’t want to; ’twas all they had got.
Selling atonal apples, amplified heat,
And Pressed Rat’s collection of dog legs and feet.
Sadly they left, telling no one goodbye.
Pressed Rat wore red jodhpurs, Warthog a striped tie.
Between them, they carried a three-legged sack,
Went straight ’round the corner and never came back.
Pressed Rat and Warthog closed down their shop.
The bad Captain Madman had told them to stop
Selling atonal apples, amplified heat,
And Pressed Rat’s collection of dog legs and feet.
The bad Captain Madman had ordered their fate.
He laughed and stomped off with a nautical gate.
The gate turned into a deroga tree
And his pegleg got woodworm and broke into three.
Pressed Rat and Warthog closed down their shop.
They didn’t want to; ’twas all they had got.
Selling atonal apples, amplified heat,
And Pressed Rat’s collection of dog legs and feet. - Got No Water - Matisyahu
