First order of post-sabbatical business–other than resisting the (alarmingly strong) temptation to fend off the full range of human emotions re: Saturday–is to thank our amazing team for all their hard work these past three months. The Love and Death issue turned out so top-notch that I’m not sure whether I should be proud or embarrassed… Same with The Very Persistent Pirate! Sheesh. (That book is now available on Amazon, btw – those who’ve experienced its charms are warmly invited to contribute a review over there, as it aids the book’s visibility). If it’s a mercy to be reminded of one’s dispensability, I’ve been mightily blessed.
That said, when it comes to crafting monthly playlists, my colleagues may still have something to learn. To wit:
- The Bitch is Back – Elton John
- Bless You – Martha Reeves & AMP; The Vandellas
- John the Baptist (Holy John) – Blood, Sweat & AMP; Tears
- Lead Me On – Amy Grant
- Don’t Take the Money – Bleachers
- Bless This Acid House – Kasabian
- Temporary One – Fleetwood Mac
- Sink / Let It Sway – Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin
- Mathematics – Cherry Ghost
- April’s Fool – The Merrymakers
- O Valencia – The Decemberists
- In Undertow – Alvvays
- Slowburn – Peter Gabriel
- Pandora’s Box – Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
- Rescued (By the Arms of Love) – Glass Tiger
- Never Knew How Much (I Needed You) – The Allman Brothers
- My Gospel – Paul Cauthen
- Adios – Glen Campbell
P.S. Check out the reduced prices for the DC Conference! (Yours truly could not be more pumped).
