September Top 5

This was my top 5 for September 2008
(most of my new music was old music this month)

Click the play button next to any song to listen

  1. Bloodshot Eyes - Wynonie Harris
    My latest favorite blues shouter/rhythm and blues singer, Wynonie Harris was known for singing upbeat songs with humorous, often ribald lyrics. With fifteen Top 10 hits between 1946 and 1952, Harris is generally considered one of rock and roll’s forerunners, influencing Elvis Presley among others. I'm not sure how I'm just hearing Wynonie, but it's always exciting to know there are more classics out there to be discovered.


  2. Butcher Boy - Mr Sad Head
    I found this song on a great compilation put together by Be Bop Wino (one of my favorite old school mp3 blogs). Check out the entire playlist at Doo Dob Sha Bam - A Rhythm & Blues Dance Party.


  3. Tennessee Waltz - Sam Cooke
    As most of you know, Sam Cooke is one of my all time favorites. My friend Sal turned me onto this previously overlooked Cooke tune. His version of this classic is excellent.


  4. That Did It (Single Version) - Bobby "Blue" Bland
    Another Bobby "Blue" Bland tune. Listen loud.


  5. Supernatural Thing Pt. 1 - Ben E. King
    One of Ben E. King's post Drifters hits from 1975.


And I've watched this so much, i feel like it should be in my top 5:
