Perhaps my favorite bridge ever (that I’m conscious of):
Just a box of rain
wind and water
believe it if you need it
if you don’t just pass it on
sun and showers
wind and rain
in and out the window
like a moth before a flame

Thin Lizzy - Still In Love With You (Remix 1974)
Gary Moore is playing guitar on this track, but he had just left the band, so he wasn't credited on the LP (their manager lied to Phonogram saying that it was Brian Robertson instead). And that is Frankie Miller doing the duet with Phil Lynott.

What song am I listening to? Well, not by choice, but it's Jingle Bell Rock, because my almost-14-year-old daughter seems to think it's Christmas season because Halloween is over. She has inherited my wife's love of Halloween and subsequent Christmas decorations. We actually HAVE Fall/Thanksgiving decor, but that stuff's being ignored today. Ugh.

Pet Shop Boys - This Must Be The Place I Waited Years To Leave (1990)
If this tune has a James Bond movie soundtrack feel there is a reason.
The Pet Shop Boys, through the rumor mill, citing "inside sources" heard that they were going to be asked to do the title song for the Bond film "The Living Daylights."
So they did an instrumental demo and awaited to be contacted. However they never heard from the Bond movie people (who instead went with A-ha instead). Three years later they added lyrics to the instrumental and the result was this tune.
Fun Fact: Johnny Marr of The Smiths guests on guitar for this track.

The Beatles - Till There Was You (1963 Stereo Remastered)
If you've never heard this in stereo before, you're in for a treat.
Written by Meredith Wilson and best known (before The Beatles version) for inclusion in his Broadway hit and later film The Music Man.
From Wiki:
The Beatles' version is sung by Paul McCartney, who is accompanied by George Harrison and John Lennon on dueling acoustic, classical guitars played in a Spanish style over a bolero bongo beat played by Ringo Starr.

I put it on random shuffle and let it go for hours. Or if something catches my ear I’ll listen to an album straight through. He was so eclectic, going a half dozen shifts into new styles and genres, it’s a nearly bottomless wellspring of discovery for me.

The Mamas & The Papas - I Call Your Name (1966)
Lead vocals: "Mama" Cass Elliot
Fun Facts:
Written (pre-Beatles) by John Lennon. The song was given to Billy J. Kramer who recorded it as the B-side to "Bad To Me." Lennon didn't like Kramer's arrangement nor that it was the B-side, so the Beatles recorded it themselves, although it was never released as a single.
The song was supposed to be included in the 1964 film "A Hard Day's Night" but was never added to the soundtdrack because director Richard Lester thought it sounded too similar to "You Can't Do That"

The Mary Celeste - Sidewinder (2011)
Three-piece Neo Rockabilly band from Helsinki, Finland and these guys really got the sound down. They probably took their name from the UK Rockabilly band The Polecats who did a song with a similar title "The Marie Celeste"
Further research has shown this was from a Japanese only CD issued in 2011 with recordings made from this band 1996 to 2009. And it appears that Finland (of all places) was a hotbed for retro Rockabilly in the aughts.

The Pan Piper - Miles Davis
From the ethereal Sketches of Spain (1960)
Trying to describe Miles playing on these brilliant Gil Evans arrangements feels like "trying to put a cloud in a box." That perfectly describes how I feel rn.
Sketches of Spain was ranked #356 in RS original 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list that came out some 20 years ago, and held to #358 in the revised list a few years ago.
I know the thread "What Song are you listening to right now" but of late I've been listening to entire albums straight through, and in true OCD style, I've been drowning in Miles Davis for weeks.
Would that you have 1/10th the joy I feel in rediscovering Davis' incredible discography.
