Carly Simon - As Time Goes By

I first heard this track when I was spinning at a friend's spot and going through a whole stack of records, and once I got the song in'sync with whatever I was playing on the other deck, I started fooling around with the mix, then I was like, damn this song's fuego, just let it play! So I threw the fader over, sat my ass down and listened, then thought to myself, "Shit that sounds like Stevie Wonder playing the harmonica in the background… wait a minute, holy shit that is!" Of course, before that solo at the end, she does sing, "Play it Stevie," but I missed that the first time. And yeah, it's a tribute to Casablanca, "play it Sam!"

Back 2 School Special Part I

Ras Kass - "Nature of the Threat"



This whole fucking song is crazy

Dead Prez - "They Schools"




"I took a history class serious
Front row, every day of the week, 3rd period
Fucking with the teachers head, calling em racist
I tried to show them crackers some light, they couldn't face it"


GZA presents Killah Priest - "B.I.B.L.E."




"I speak on Jacob, it might take up some time
And too much knowledge, it might break up the ryhme
I did it anyway just to wake up the mind
Of those who kiss stones or prays on the carpet
Those who sit home, or sell books by the market
Need to chill and get their mind revived
For years religion did nothing but divide
The Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth"

Autumn of My Life

I found a child's practice guitar that smelled like cat piss and asked my mother to play a song so I could learn it and play it for her.

So Many Roads

Jerry's farewell ode to us, from the last show the Grateful Dead ever played, if you can listen to and watch this video and not choke up at least a little bit... I don't know what to make of that.
