Welcome to part 98 of my Never Ending Mixtape!
I started this blog/playlist/mixtape back in October 2016 with the simple intention of creating a playlist that I would add songs to on a regular basis and then blog about the latest additions every month.
There would be no thought to the structure of the playlist, unlike the mixtapes and CD's I would make in my younger days. I'd just add songs when I felt like it, depending on what I was listening to.
As a result, my Never Ending Mixtape now has 4,269 songs! It's an eclectic and eccentric mix that I regularly play on shuffle.
We jump from 4,217 songs to 4,269 with the additions of the original demo for The House Song by The Beta Band and then the version that ended up on their Patty Patty Sound EP. Last month I mentioned how the band were teasing their reunion. I'm delighted that I'll be going to see them at The Barrowland this September!
Check this early Tiny Desk Concert by Edward Sharp & The Magnetic Zeros. I love the Tiny Desk YouTube channel. Their performance of Home at 4-minutes 30-seconds is magical!
Thank you so much if you are one of the 361 people following the playlist.
