The Music Project - An Imminent Convergence!

We're quickly approaching the Birthday'bration and reunion at the farm, and many of us are totally enrapt in the music project through which we can share some of our all-time favorites. Let's just go ahead and call this 'The 1st Annual Music Sharing Symposia'...(ok, temp 'til we think of something better).

Before I share my final list for 2013, I will recommend that for anyone who has not yet compiled there list--a CD's worth at most--there is a resource available at most FYE stores where you can search their entire catalog to select songs to burn to your own CD... For roughly $20, you can order them however you want, select cover art, etc, and have a disc burned for you within about 15 minutes after your selection is finalized. It's an easy way to compile your music, and inclusive of song you may not yet have in your own music collection. Caveat--their catalog is expansive, but, as Jon and Andrew had figured out, may still be lacking in certain areas...you'll hear their experience in a few weeks.

OK...my 2013 list of songs I can listen to repeatedly:
1. Peter Gunn Theme - Blues Brothers soundtrack
2. Walkin' On The Sun - Smashmouth
3. Memories Can't Wait - Talking Heads
4. Hell Yes - Beck
5. Spill The Wine - Eric Burdon & The Animals
6. Make No Sound - Gomez
7. Roxanne - The Police
8. My Wife - The Who
9. One Mint Julep - Ray Charles
10. Boogie On Reggae Woman - Stevie Wonder
11. Tell Me Something Good - Rufus (featuring Chaka Khan)
12. Cinnamon Girl - Neil Young & Crazy Horse
13. Danza del Terror - Paco de Lucia
14. My Country - tUnE-yArDs
15. San Tropez - Pink Floyd
16. Rikki Don't Lose That Number - Steely Dan
17. Last Child - Aerosmith
18. La Grange - ZZ Top
19. Misty Mountain Hop - Led Zeppelin
20. We Have Heaven - Yes
21. Close To Me - The Cure
22. Much Later - Wynton Marsalis

And just to let you all know, I'm already well along with my 2014 compilation...This IS an ongoing project that I hope will engage everyone who partakes as much as it has engaged me!

Looking forward to seeing you all in a few!

Josh
