Top tracks: your recommendations please
Posted by Uncle Monty on 8 July 2010 - 12:21pm.
As part of my deal with Napster, I get to download 15 'free' tracks. It seems to me that the way to get the best of this deal is not to download albums as it works out cheaper to buy them separately. So I'm looking for tracks to download that are recent, great and - I suppose - not featured on albums that I intend to buy anyway.
I know a few that I'm definitely getting: Stornoway's I saw you blink; the Avett Brothers Head full of doubt; Eliza Dolittle's Skinny Genes. Based on that, do you have any recommendations for top tunes I really ought to be downloading in the next few days?

Give a try to....
"Single Father" by Jackie Levin. A thing of rare beauty.
One of the ones
I recently chose as a download from Napster was Jace Everett's Bad Things (the theme from the spiffingly entertaining TV show True Blood). I've no intention of purchasing an album of this chap's music, but this one is a rootin' tootin' fine CHOON.
Terry Riley
In C - 46 minutes of timelessly shifting music
Listening to this now
Wow - strangely hypnotic.
I've never heard of him before, and this wouldn't normally be my thing but it's actually pretty cool. Would be a bargain download!
where dreams go to die
By John Grant, just in case you don't already have it. Trust me, you won't regret it.
'I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire' by The Inkspots...
one of the best songs.
Willin'
by Little Feat. Because it is one of the finest songs and most life affirming. Also everyone should have a copy.
Pete Molinari
Said it before and I'll say it again: this is a damn fine tune off a damn fine album.
Every home should have a little...
its not recent
but its worth having
