Friday random ten: Three cheers for the red, white, and blue, part 3

Posted on July 9, 2010 by Charles Kuffner

We’ve had red, we’ve had white, and now we’ve got blue:

1. Blue Angel – Squirrel Nut Zippers
2. Blue Baiao – Susanna Sharpe and the Samba Police
3. Blue Jeans – Eddie from Ohio
4. Blue Light – David Gilmour
5. Blue Lou – Benny Carter
6. Blue Moon – The Marcels
7. Blue Moon of Kentucky – Bill Monroe & His Bluegrass Boys
8. Blue Rondo a la Turk – Dave Brubeck Quartet
9. Blue Shadows on the Trail – Syd Straw
10. Blue State Girl – Michael Clem

Note that these are “blue” songs and not “blues” songs. Hold that thought for another time. Note also that the second word in song #2 is spelled correctly and has nothing to do with this guy. What’s blue with you this week?

Entire song list report: Started with “Italian Leather Sofa”, by CAKE. Finished with “Johnny’s Room”, by the Lager Rhythms, song #2597. Only 48 songs this week – hey, there was a holiday, you know? The last I song was the one right after the song I started with, “Ivan Meets G.I. Joe”, by Jason Ringenberg. The first J song was “J.M.’s Question”, by John Mellencamp, or if you’re a purist, “Jack Can’t Cook”, by Eddie from Ohio.

Ripping vinyl report: The Ripping Vinyl Report is still off in its hideaway. It won’t be back next week, but it may be back the week after that.
