Here it is! In the tradition of American Idle and Rox Pop, every Friday I will turn the I-Pod to shuffle and see what it spits out. This Friday's Top Ten:

1. Sunny Side of the Mountain - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
2. Demons are Real - Guided by Voices
3. Nausea - X
4. Marmora Pig - Washboard Hank and the Squirrels
5. O Maria - Beck
6. Through these Eyes - Social Distortion
7. Human Hands - Elvis Costello
8. Ready, Steady, Go - Generation X
9. Swiftly but Gently - Young Fresh Fellows
10. Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love - Van Halen

Nice mix - got your blue grass, 70's punk, lo-fi, power pop, cock rock, and Beck. Favorite song this week? Amelia Earhart by The Handsome Family. Song about what is going through Amelia Earhart's mind as her plane crashes. This song haunted me a couple of summers ago.

What's your top 10?

My reaction: Enchantment. Lotsa funk, brass band, some indie, some classic, some obscure, & a little power diva stompage. Poetry in musical motion.

Song for the week: “About my Money� by Outformation. This Georgia band makes truly modern day rock with deep funky style. Try it. foryouroutformation.com
