FRIDAY RANDOM TEN - PASSOVER EDITION

It’s Friday once again - time for this week’s Random Ten, the assortment of Choons horked out by the Little White Choon-Box.

It’s Passover, which means that music is about the only leavening agent around. If I were truly observant, I would not be listening to music today... but then again, I would also not be posting. Ah, well. At least I’m staying well away from the Usual Suspects: swine, seafood, bread, beer, whisky...

But you don’t want to hear about my Dietary Restrictions, do you? Of course not. You want to know what’s playing on the ol’ Choon-Box. So let’s take a listen:
  1. Di Great Insohreckshan - Linton Kwesi Johnson

  2. Outside Now Again - Frank Zappa

  3. Boxing - Ben Folds

  4. Moy Motocikl - Leningrad

  5. Geek USA - Smashing Pumpkins

  6. Interlude - The Klezmatics

  7. The Rye or the Kaiser - Weird Al Yankovic

  8. The Beehive State - Randy Newman

    “Since you’re the delegate from Kansas
    Will you kindly take the floor
    And tell us what Kansas is thinking
    And what is Kansas for?”

    “Well, Kansas is for the farmer
    We stand behind the little man
    And we need a firehouse in Topeka
    So help us if you can”

    “I see the delegate from Utah
    Our friendly Beehive State
    How can we help you, Utah?
    How can we make you great?”

    “Well, we got to irrigate our deserts
    So we can get some things to grow
    And we got to tell this country about Utah
    ’Cause nobody seems to know”

  9. So Like Candy - Elvis Costello

  10. Way Back In The 1960s - The Incredible String Band

It’s Friday. What are you listening to?
