The Friday Music Shuffle (2.12.22)

by Rick Johansen

Good day to one and all and welcome to the Friday Music Shuffle. Ten songs from my collection, chosen at random by my musical device, I tell you what they are and should you wish to listen and even sing along, then just click on the title.

On the second day of official winter, let’s rock!

  1. Pursuit on 53rd Street by the Doobie Brothers. Classic Doobie sound from 1974’s What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits. Ain’t that the truth?
  2. Lula by Phil Mison. The picture in the video says it all. Let it wash all over you. So chilled.
  3. I’ll Be Back Upon My Feet by The Monkees. Some filler from 1968’s The Birds, The Bees & The Monkees.
  4. No Scrubs by TLC. R&B? Hip Hop? Both? Who cares? It’s a banger.
  5. Imagine by John Lennon. Genius.
  6. Don’t Just Do Something by Spiritualised. Brilliant from 2001’s Let It Come Down.
  7. Catch The Wind by Donovan. Dylanesque tune from the Scottish singer songwriter. Very nice.
  8. Disco Strangler by The Eagles. Filler from 1979’s The Long Run.
  9. Busy Being Fabulous by The Eagles. More Eagles filler from 2007’s Long Road Out Of Eden, which was full of it.
  10. Run by Sash feat Boy George. Back 20 years to this belter, IMHO a later career highlight for the Culture Club chap.

This week’s Desert Island Disc can only be the exciting number five tune, Imagine by John Lennon.

That’s all, folks!
