L'Orchestra de la Suisse Romande [01:01] "Dance Suite" From Bartók: Dance Suite/Two Portraits Opus Five/Rumanian Dances London ffrr CS 6407 1964 Composed by Bartók in 1923 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the union of the cities Buda and Pest. Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra [19:32] "Second Suite for Orchestra, Op. 4: Comodo" Bartok: Second Suite For Orchestra, Op.4 Mercury MG 50098 1959 This is the revised 1943 version, for those of you wondering. Pete Fountain and his Jazz Group [27:19] "Mack the Knife" Bateau Lounge Coral Records CRL 757314 1960 Ol Mack, he's back in NO with this one time Lawrence Welk saxophonist. Bauhaus [30:57] "Dark Entries" Bauhaus 4AD 312 1983 A 4AD Bauhaus compilation, this track was their follow-up single to Bela Lugosi's Dead. Bay City Rollers [34:50] "Saturday Night" Bay City Rollers Arista AL 4049 1975 This album was the Rollers first foray into North America, reaching number 20 on this top 200 and this song made it to number 1 on the hot 100 of course. Sometimes you just have to go with the hits. I could have tortured you with their rendition of "Be My Baby" but I like you too much. And here's a friendly reminder of the excellent Nick Lowe song about the Rollers. Afrika Bambaata & the Soul Sonic Force [37:47] "Frantic Situation" Beat Street Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, Volume 1 Atlantic 80154-1 1984 Yes, there is a Volume 2, but it is not in my collection. Interested parties can listen to the Vinyl-O-Matic Movie of the Month regarding this film. The Beat [42:57] "Rock N Roll Girl" The Beat Columbia JC 36195 1979 It's so hard to just play one song from this killer album. Pure power pop goodness. And one of the best opening tracks ever. The Beatles [46:26] "I'm So Tired" The Beatles Apple SWB) 101 1968 Aren't we all? The Beatles [48:30] "Money" The Beatles Second Album Capitol ST 2080 1964 Actually, their third US album. The Beatles [51:22] "Eight Days a Week" Beatles VI Capitol T2358 1965 Evidently this song was not highly thought of by the Beatles. The Beatles [54:10] "I'm a Loser" Beatles '65 Capitol T 2228 1965 Can't go wrong with a loser song, as far as I'm concerned. There's a pretty great Marianne Faithfull version of this song from the same year too!
