You'll see there is a difference between yesterday's pick and today. But there is also some similarity. I had some of these tracks in yesterday's pick, but moved them here because it was more appropriate. I told you about Joe Walsh being here, yesterday. The Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis was moved too. I already had Jimmy Buffett, so that was moved here. I also moved the Travis Tritt cover to this one. Frankie Goes To Hollywood just fit better here as did Byron Lee (one of the best soca songs ever - I think better than most all else). One of my favorites is the Jorge Buccio. If you haven't visited Puglias in Little Italy in New York (Hester and Mulberry), you haven't lived. Jorge plays there and is amazing. Family style Italian food and him playing and singing. Tell him I sent you. You will have a good time. You'll understand his song after you go. The cover is inspired by the clothing company. But I did it my way.

My French library is pretty weak. Not much after Les Negres Verte and Plastic Bertrand. Maybe a few dozen bands.
