29.35 Getting Ready - Freddie King (1971)
I don't know that much about the Blues, but I know this rocks.
King was a Texas Blues guitarist who played in Chicago, fusing the two styles. He died WAY too young.
Songs:
Going Down
I'm Tore Down

I just read this. Kinda weird we all did/do this.And I have also put on Django countless times while making breakfast, and it works better than any magic spell ...
So screw it. I am going to stay live for the duration. This is what I found.

Django Festival Live at Birdland
I'd listened to Jimmy Rosenberg impressively channeling Django before, but discovered this in my search for a live album. It's pretty damn good if you like a airy gypsy guitar shredding your omelette cheese. Sparing the unwashed with a couple quicker noodlings. Miss Stephane alot, but wth.

I was rewarded with another Sturgill Simpson song. Someone explain to me why this is so good, because it is so good.

When I listen to Steve Miller, I can't unhear him breathing. I end up listening for him taking his next breath more than the lyrics.

Thanks. I don't know where KarmaP left the playlist and whose tracks are missing, but I will help with it when I get home. The girls were out doing girl things today, so I took naps and listened to live music when not keeping up with this. Undecided if I want to make a six hour red-eye drive tonight or wait for tomorrow. Either way I will be offline the rest of the night and most of tomorrow. Permaskip continues. Pleased to be caught up for now. Y'all should at least check spotty for your most recent picks and let us know if some are missing.

You Trip Me Up - Jesus and Mary Chain - kickass
Beginnings - Chicago - I always forget there was this terrific band called Chicago before the Peter Cetera years. Great reminder.
Here Comes My Girl - Tom Petty - well, yeah. I am not a huge Petty fan but this song is
Whole Lotta Love - did I ever mention here that in high school the very cool "dangerous" guy who rode a motorcycle and had an overnight DJ spot on a Louisville rock station nicknamed me "Bob" because my hair was looking like Robert Plant's?

When undecided it's good when others share ideas. No driving for me. I'll be here all night.

I remember loving a Keane album years ago, but don't recall which one. The Keane song I just listened to, "This Is The Last Time," was so refreshing in this mix. Nice pick, @mphtrilogy.

Joy Divison - Atmosphere - One of their more New Orderish numbers
Percy Sledge - Cover Me - The playlist knows me and what I need tonight
Django Festival guy - Limehouse Blues - Ridiculous picking five times fast
Rush - Analog Kid - When MI6 trained me to withstand torture, they said to lock in on the drums. I keed I keed.
SRV Texas Flood - Man the way he attacks notes. Stevie Ray's tone is fat.

Round 29 - Refused, The Shape of Punk to Come (1997)
The reason I was terrified when @rockaction entered this draft. How they slipped under my radar before then I don’t know. But they did. And with his help a few years ago that was corrected. I felt pretty good about this not being on anyone else’s radar, so – thank you for going the shtick route on this thing so I didn’t panic pick it a dozen or so rounds ago.

I'm not terribly familiar with D'Angelo and didn't love the song that was playing, but the album cover looked tasty, so I dug into him and found this: D'Angelo: What the Hell Happened? No longer tasty.

I almost picked it anyway. I remember us talking about them a while back.
Yep. It might take me a minute to decide, though. I never thought it would get back to me.

Round 29.38 - Cancer 4 Cure - El-P (2012)
The finest solo effort from El-P, the Run The Jewels stalwart, previously an underground indie rapper. This is him in a previous iteration of himself. Cancer 4 Cure, as it were, is El-P's testament to paranoia, borderline schizophrenic, but always reasoned, always rational. Never delusionally grandiose, yet rooted in a firm fear of the system under which we live. It’s performed under the assertion and belief that there is someone out to get you, somewhere, wherever you are – because of something you have said or done before. The lyrics are dystopian. The anger over being a pawn in the game seethes with every track. There’s a ripping sense of humor that goes along with it, one that those already in the know indeed do know. An appropriate album for the events of the day. Selections include the outright dance/techno trance banger and William Burroughs-introduced "Request Denied" and "Drones Over BKYLN"
Request Denied

It doesn't matter much, and I appreciate that you're one of the few to put pick numbers in your posts, but you are at .28 on the even rounds and .13 on the odd rounds.
