Sunday Shuffle

Posted on September 29, 2013 by sheila

Heat Wave Shuffle

Posted on July 18, 2013 by sheila

Some tunes on the old Shuffle over the past week. “Lawdy Miss Clawdy” – the great Lloyd Price. One of the first giant crossover hits, where white kids started buying a “race” record. Of course, Elvis would then record it … Continue reading →

Wacky June Shuffle

Posted on June 14, 2013 by sheila

Here is the ongoing Shuffle I’ve had running for a couple of weeks. I pop in and out of it, as I travel by bus, by car, or take a run along the cliffs. The Shuffle is eternal, always waiting … Continue reading →

Shuffle For a Shitty Week

Posted on December 16, 2012 by sheila

Shuffle

Posted on September 30, 2012 by sheila

“We Like to Party” – The Venga Boys. This, to be clear, is the “DJ Disco Mix” version of the all-time classic “We Like to Party”. Pat McCurdy sent me this CD years ago and I have no idea why. … Continue reading →

Elvis/Elvis

Posted on September 29, 2011 by sheila

One of the staples of any Pat McCurdy performance is his “Elvis” mashup, highlighting songs from his two favorite guys and main inspirations (with a little Gilbert & Sullivan thrown in there), Elvis Presley and Elvis Costello. Pat and I … Continue reading →

Beach Drive iPod Shuffle

Posted on August 3, 2011 by sheila

I’ve been back and forth to the beach 5 times in the last 5 days. It’s been hot, humid, and I yearn for the ocean. Because of my writing gig, I can’t hit the road until around 2, which often … Continue reading →

Day-Long iPod Shuffle

Posted on December 12, 2010 by sheila

A Week-Long Shuffle
