Yep, thread went up about half an hour ago.

Expecting a number of the usual suspects, but AL's been good about digging out some new things to fit within theme sets of late, so I am cautiously hopeful.
Let's get right to it.

I suggested Johnny Paycheck "Me & the IRS" -- which I heard the other day on KPFA -- and then saw that Giter Dunn had already requested it. But we've surely never heard it so hope springs.

Python's "Money Song" is always a delight.

Flying Lizards -- I really never need to hear this one again but it's kinda like not playing "Jingle Bells" at Xmastime.

And I still say it sounds like Yoko.

It is quite awful, isn't it?

I don't think it's awful -- I loved it in 1979 -- but it's way overexposed.

I've always enjoyed it too, actually. But listening to it today...musically speaking, it's not good.

Another evergreen: The Fab Four, Taxman.

What Mike said about the Flying Lizards tune and Jinglebells, times five.

Besides, it's the Beatles from one of their most creative periods, imo. You can't complain about the Beatles. (Although we probably have.)

Robert Cray and 1040 Blues, however....
