Nutshell Kingdom: songs for a rainy monday
2003
All's that's in my head today are songs. Tomorrow, I'll extoll the virtues of camping trips -- but that just seems a little on the S&M side considering the omnipresent rain.
Songs:
1. Which Will, Time Has Told Me- Nick Drake
2. Heroin- Velvet Underground
3. The 2d side of Abbey Road
4. If You Don't Cry- Magnetic Fields
5. Kanga Roo, the last three songs (ending with Take Care) on Sister/Lovers- Big Star
6. Colors and the Kids- Cat Power
7. The 1st side of Essence- Lucinda Williams
8. River- Joni Mitchell
9. Dear Chicago, Chin Up, Cheer Up- Dirty Ryan
10. Buckets of Rain- Dylan
11. Riverbed, In a Flash- Ron Sexsmith
12. The entire album Devotion and Doubt- Richard Buckner
13. Stolen Car- Patty Griffin's version even better than Springsteen's
14. Any and All Otis Redding and Hank Williams
15. Soundtrack to The Harder They Come- Jimmy Cliff (to cheer up)
16. all of Surfer Rosa and Come on Pligrim- Pixies (reliable get it out of your system by screaming nonsense in pidgen Spanish).
17. Ain't no Sunshine- Bill Withers (predictable and awesome)
Sorry if this sounds like a stupid Amazon list, but there you go... Any other rainy Monday recommendations?
