Kuff got me.

List ten songs that you are currently digging … it doesn’t matter what genre they are from, whether they have words, or even if they’re no good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying right now. Post these instructions, the artists, and the ten songs in your blog. Then tag five other people to see what they’re listening to.

O-o-kay. I haven’t got an iPod, so I’ll do a random grab from the vinyl collection in the middle of the first shelf.

  1. “It’s No Secret” — Jefferson Airplane. From “Jefferson Airplane Takes Off.”
  2. “Tangled Up in Blue” — Bob Dylan. From “Blood on the Tracks.”
  3. “Try (Just a Little Bit Harder)” — Janis Joplin. From “Joplin in Concert.”
  4. “Jambalaya” — Emmylou Harris. From “Elite Hotel.”
  5. “These Eyes” — Guess Who. From “The Best of The Guess Who.”
  6. “Wishing Well” — Free. From “Heartbreaker.”
  7. “Funk #49” — The James Gang. From “The James Gang 16 Greatest Hits.”
  8. “Tiny Dancer” — Elton John. From “Madman Across the Waters.”
  9. “Day by Day” — Original Cast. From “Godspell.”
  10. “Listen to the Music” — The Doobie Brothers. From “Toulouse Street.”

Huh. I coulda done worse (what if it had hit the “Ls” and I’d gotten The Lettermen?). It’s not quite “what you’re really digging right now;” it’s more “what haven’t you listened to in a while and just rediscovered as a result of this exercise?” Fine by me; I can find a couple of hours to listen to all these albums.

Since I don’t really know who might come by in the next day or so, I’m not gonna tag anyone in particular; if you’re up for it, trackback here to let me know.
