Sunday Evening OPB Radio Playlist

Sunday evening after a Trail Blazes loss and the realization that this team is in trouble that has caused me to be discouraged with watching basketball preceded by my obsessive eagle in the park photo session that turned out mostly blurry, so a little good music is in order.
  • M Ward - Me and My Shadow ….. Just caught the last thirty seconds but something about this says Bob Dylan to me.
  • Lord Huron - Lonesome Dreams *****
  • Kishi Bashi - Philosophize In It! Chemicalize With It!
  • Angie McMahon - Keeping Time ***** ….. Thought that I need to purchase this one, went to iTunes and discovered that I already had.
  • Shearwater - A Long Time Away
  • Nico - The Fairest of the Seasons ….. Instantly recognizable. A voice I love!! "I want to know, do I stay or do I go?"
  • Animal Eyes - Mushroom Hunter
  • Black Belt Eagle Scout - My Heart Dreams *****
  • Frankie Cosmos - A Joke (live version)
  • Kathleen Edwards - Asking for Flowers ***** ….. In my collection. Reminding me that I need to dig the album out and get reaquainted. "Don't tell me you're too tired, ten years I've been working nights."
  • Cat Power - Woman (featuring Lana Del Rey)

  • Saintseneca - The Awefull Yawn
  • Toro Y Moi - Girl Like You
  • Tommy Alexander - Time and Time Again
  • She-Devils - Hey Boy
I keep saying to myself: "Time to end this and move on to whatever's next in my evening …. But maybe just one more song." Because the alternative tonight was watching my list of Twitter followers go up and down.

  • Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - Heavy Metal
  • Dana Buoy - Bloom
  • Corridor - Junior *****
  • La Luz - Cicada

Evening of Jazz

A different kind of Jazz playlist. Not a lot of household names here. No jazz standards here. That doesn't mean it can't be enjoyabl...
