Bubbling under at number 6 was Best of CBeebies, the other podcast I subscribe to because yes the children do object to Mark Ellen's laugh in the car. Telling them there's been a national debate and questions asked in the New South Wales parliament about this seem oddly to get me nowhere...

Big red sun blues/Lucinda Williams. From the 3rd (4th?)yet eponymously titled and, IMHO, best Lucinda LP. Exemplary playing and production by the excellently named Gurf Morlix.
See me/Luther Vandross. Cripes! The Mrs Path influence kicks in. Not bad by half. Isn't that what they call "fatback" bass?
You made a fool of me/Tasmin Archer. Post shooting Satellites she should have been enormous, even getting Mitchell Froom to produce her. It sank like a stone. Pity, 'cos its a good LP, even if the whitest sounding woman of colour in the world(see strand of some weeks back)
Ride on/O Susanna. Not the song made famous by Christy Moore and others, but a slab of 10 minute american gothic (think decaying southern mansions and consumptive riverboat queens, rather than black lippy)Fabulous to drive thru' Castle Vale to.
About the ocean/Glen Campbell. From the Reunion LP with Jimmy Webb. Beautiful vocal.You can see why he was a short term Beach Boy sidesman Standout track from a somewhat patchy LP.
