Post #110 - The Monday Monkey Mix Vol 59


FYI: Tracks 9-14 are taken from a cd entitled In Search Of Syd, which was given away as a bonus with the October 2007 issue of Uncut Magazine. It's a tribute to Pink Floyd founder Syd Barrett, and featured both music that influenced Syd and music influenced by Syd. The name Pink Floyd for example came from blues men Pink Anderson and Floyd Council, both featured on the cd, as well as on this mix. The Pink Anderson song actually sets a new record for this blog - recorded in 1929 it is the oldest song ever featured on a Monkey Mix (narrowingly beating out Al Bowlly's 1931 recording of Guilty on Monkey Mix Vol. 51).

The mix ends fittingly with Syd's magnificently odd Bike from his band's debut LP Piper At The Gates Of Dawn.

1. Arnold Schwarzenegger - Burning for you (1982)
2. Doug McLean - Vincent (1971)
3. Monster Magnet - Five years ahead of my time (date unknown)
4. Bruce Willis - Under the boardwalk (1987)
5. Guano Apes - Money & milk (2000)
6. Bruce Springsteen & The E-Street Band - No surrender (1984)
7. Queens Of The Stone Age - White wedding (2007)
8. El Perro Del Mar - Candy (2005)
9. The Flaming Lips - She is death (2002)
10. Blind Boy Fuller & Floyd Council - If you don't give me what I want (1937)
11. Pink Anderson - C.C. and O. blues (1929)
12. Bonzo Dog Band - Humanoid boogie (1968)
13. Kevin Ayers - Oh! Wot a dream (1972)
14. Jennifer Gentle - Take my hand (2007)
15. Pink Floyd - Bike (1967)

Post #108 - The Monday Monkey Mix Vol. 57 (two days late because I had better things to do two days ago)



The majority of the tracks on volme 57 (namely tracks 1-3, 5-8 and 14) are taken from the cd entitled Stoned, which was given away as a bonus with the September 2007 issue of Uncut Magazine.

Track 9 is a left over from Monkey Mix Volume 56, which was dedicated to Townes Van Zandt.

The inclusion of Queen's Mustapha is a mistake. When I made this mix I must have missed that I had already included it on volume 55. But what the hell. It's a great song, it deserves to be downloaded twice.

1. The Temptations - Ain't too proud to beg (1966)
2. Chuck Berry - Come on (1961)
3. Billy Bragg - She smiled sweetly (2006)
4. The Kingstonians - Sufferer (1970)
5. Gene Allison - You can make it if you try (1958)
6. Eric Donaldson - Cherry oh baby (1971)
7. Joe Simon - Let's spend the night together (1976)
8. Bo Diddley - Crackin' up (1959)
9. Townes Van Zandt - Highway kind (1972)
10. Pulp - The trees (2001)
11. Turin Brakes - Moonlight mile (2004)
12. Shelley Duvall - He needs me (1980)
13. Queen - Mustapha (1978)
14. Irma Thomas - Time is on my side (1964)
15. Ebba Grön - Born to be wild (live) (1982)
