Starts with Uprising by Muse .... and it's perfect - what else would you expect from The Vatican?
"This playlist is a perfect mix of classical, world and contemporary music. The genres are very different from each other, but all these artists share the aim to reach the heart of good minded people."
With the end of the decade looming, I've seen a lot of stuff about top albums released in the last 10 years on things like the guardian etc... Kind of reminded me of what I was expecting music to be like with the end of the 90's around this time in 1999. At the start of 2000 HMV just seemed like a neon mess of bright albums with vector graphics for dance compilations....I was expecting music to be well shit and in a way most pop music has been since then! I was very very wrong about other stuff though. Tried to put a list together and things will probably change over time as they always do!
(no smashing pumpkins in there either!)

This is attempt one at a distillation of the influence of literature on the postpunk musics of the UK, 1978-84. This was also the fundraising show for our station, WMBR, so we had to beg for money every chance we get.
Look out for Part 2, maybe sometime around the New Year

Back in August I posted about a family tradition: the Sunday Sauce. Each Sunday my old man would make a homemade pasta sauce. There is lots of Italian blood running through both sides of my family. Have a read of that post to find about more about the tradition if you like.
Today is Sunday and I needed the plasma. I cooked up a batch of sauce and took a few snaps. As always, the key ingredient was used: music. Nothing like spending an hour or so making sauce with good rhythms and good blues playing in the background.
I have an iTunes playlist I created that I use as the soundtrack to my cooking; its called, 'Blues With a Feeling". It is a great blend of Blues, Gospel, Country, Soul and R&B...all old, old school. Just the way I like it.
A little bit of garlic, a little bit of oregano, a little bit of Booker T. & the MGs, a little bit of Waylon Jennings and a heathy dose of Bettye Lavette.
Perfect
p.s. I made enough for everyone. Come over if you want. Bring wine.
