Nice playlist, Shoey. Needless to say, I contemplated nomming the Trashcans over on the mothership but decided even I couldn’t go quite that tangenital this early in the weekend!
Couldn’t do it either, over there. But there’s always the ‘Spill.
and I was expecting:
Thief and the Liar - Scary Éire
(just cos of yesterday)
“can’t live above the law”
being the only line close, is very much pushing it.
Did nearly throw in some Buck 65
glad you didn’t ‘cos ‘cop shades’ is in my playlist for later… watch this space.
Shoey; Jah Lion is one of my favorite Ja. artists so I scrolled through to him and Murvin, nice; I’ll come back for the rest.
It came with the reissued & expanded version of Murvin’s Police & Thieves – one of my gave reggae albums.
can you get your phone to ‘learn’ the difference between Gave and FAVE? ha ha
Nah, my smart phone isn’t as clever as it would like to think.
I loved this playlist. Highlights for me – Dandy Warhols, Stiff Little Fingers, Trashcan Sinatras, and especially Chokebore. And 69 Police, but i had some problems hearing it because the little cat started freaking out and meowing and scratching the wall through the whole song, i think she must have thought the background squeals were another cat.
Well that’s a 1st. Don’t think I’ve managed to distress anyone’s pussy before.
Would have liked to have nommed Chokbore, as I’m very fond of them, but exactly how this song relates to police is a mystery.
Anyway, glad you liked it & thanks for listening.
