Day 10 - Song
Frank Sinatra - Without A Song
"I'll-a never know what makes that rain to fall
I'll never know what makes the grass so tall
I only know there ain't no love at all
Without a song"
Aristolian in it's profoundity.

Day 9 - One
Sister Sledge - One More Time
The Chic produced album "We Are Family", had so many hits on it that this fine sinuous groove, got a bit lost.

Day 9 - Spoilt For Choice
Luther Vandross - Since I Lost My Baby
"Good things are bad
And what's happy is sad"
Smokey nailing that feeling of deep, inconsolable despair. Fine as The Temptations version is, this is the one.

Day 8 - It's Very Nice To Go Travelling
Bobby Short - I Happen To Like New York
Ah, the wit of Cole Porter, God how we need him now. It's hard to imagine him prospering in Hackensack though.

Day 8 - No
Gladys Knight - No One Could Love You More
Right back at'cha Gladys. That throaty imperious voice, Jamerson's joyous bassline & the Pips harmonising impeccably. A good track to play if there's domestic "agita" in the air.

Day5 -Touch
Gene Pitney-Just One Smile
"I don`t ask for much
A look, a smile, a touch"
An early song from Randy N. Those lines are perfect for the over-wrought, self-pitying style of Gene. I use them myself, if I don't get my own way😊

Day 4 - A Hidden Gem
Al Green - Beware
The last track on "Livin' For You", has Al and the Hodges brothers, stretching out for 8 mins. Al dissolving in laughter at the end, adds to the jam session, substances have been taken, vibe.

Day 3 - Remix
Public Enemy - Shut 'Em Down(Pete Rock Remix)
Not much thought required with this one. That looping horn riff, makes Chuck's vocal pop even more & turns this into a monster.
"I like the original but wait a minute !"

Day 1 - 1 Hit
Mercy - Love Can Make You Happy
Kept off the Billboard no.1 in '69 by a modest beat combo, The Beatles. I still occasionally dress like in the video - for old times sake - though strictly behind closed doors.

Noel Coward - Why Do The Wrong People Travel
"Travel they say improves the mind,
An irritating platitude, which frankly, entrenous,
Is very far from true"
Possibly prompted by a recent holiday🤭
Thanks Laura.
