We rule, all others drool

Here, so that all may look upon and envy, the cool kids who played the game, (and because I have nothing cogent or scintillating to say other wise), is the awesome play list(s) of SwimClub Radio Volume 1.
For those who may have just tuned in; the idea was to make a disc of ones all time favouritest or most representative of ones musical soul at this time, to intrigue and edify the other players.

I think that worked quite well. The disparity is fascinating to me. I love that.

I also find it really interesting that of the ones that didn't have a particular theme like DJ Barry's did, the two artists that made two different lists were, David Bowie and Siouxsie Sioux. That is just odd. Although had I had just a smitch more room Donovan would have also been in that category with his song "Ferris Wheel". I suppose technically Frank Black also made that distinction as he is represented both with The Catholics and The Pixies. So that is four artists who can make the interesting slide between so many different tastes.

DJ Barry's disc was really, really cool for me as I never heard a single thing on it previously. I really tripped out on "Las Lomas de New Jersey". I also liked "Patricia" a lot. It is ultimately playable, and I'm thinking it may just be one of the soundtracks for Oliver's 40th birthday dinner next weekend.
DJ Nigel's was really good for me as well, as he is an expert on a whole era of music I completely missed - The '90's. Seems I am always either 400 hundred years, or a decade or so, behind the 8 ball musically. It was only last year that I discovered Bach after all. And it had The Cramps on it, 'nuff said.
DJ UBU's was a study in classics. I think everybody said something about liking the Beachboys tune. I had never heard the John Cale piece before so that was a treat. Albeit as usual with Cale, a challenging one. I had also never heard the Springsteen before and it totally justifies why I am always having to say to people who are music snobbing on him, that they just don't know him from before.
DJ Oliver, I think, (prejudicially of course) just has marvelous musical taste. I can always count on him to keep me pulling forward into the future because as you can see from mine-
DJ Stella's, I have a tendency to stay firmly mired in the late 20th century, especially the 60's, 70's and 80's. So even though I know people have heard my selections (with the possible exception of Flirt) a zillion times, I think my segues and transitions make it all fresh again. At least that was my hope. And I can tell you that it is as good a representation of my musical soul as anyone may ever see. Well except for volume II which I have already been working on!
