Any luck for The Josh?
1. Why?-Crossed Bones

Very cool album. This album is when Why? really expanded his sound with a live band. This guy is immensely influenced by Beck, especially his lyrics.

2. John Fahey-The Yellow Princess

What can I say about Fahey that hasn't been said. The guy is just simply amazing on the guitar, and wildly influential on a lot of the popular folk guys of today like M. Ward and Devendra Banhart. When I make my movie this song is going to be in it, it would be terrific in a film.

3. The Hives-A Get Together To Tear It Apart

Oh baby, Howlin' Pelle and the Hives boys. This song is fantastic. This album is great, and to toot my own horn for a minute I turned a slew of people on to the Hives. I had this album on import and I kept playing it for everyone. Go Hives!

4. Linda Serbu-If You Rescue Me(Acapella)

This is a woman singing the Velvet Underground song from the Science Of Sleep soundtrack. The song has a small running theme through the film and so there's about three or four versions of it on the soundtrack. Nothing will ever touch the original though, with the sweet Mo Tucker vocals. This version here is not that good, though.

5. Buddy Holly-Ting A Ling

Horrible name for a song, but I love me some Buddy Holly. This song has some great classic Buddy vocals on it too. He hiccups all throughout it, which is great. Nice little short rocker with some great strumming from Holly.

6. The Knife-Neverland

People are going nuts over The Knife, but I haven't gotten super into them. This track is very cool though. They're a swedish electro group, and they got a lot of notoriety from Jose Gonzalez covering their song Heartbeats. Solid electro stuff.

7. Bert Jansch-It Don't Bother Me

My fellow crusader, Sir Jon, gave me an iTunes gift card for my Birthday, and I used part of it to purchase the two-disc Bert Jansch anthology. Bert Jansch is great old British folk music, mostly just guitar, the occasional strings or drums. This song is similiar to a lot of his stuff, but still great. Some nice fingerpicking and moaning singing. I can dig it.

8. Tenacious D-Double Team

JABLES AND RAGE KAGE!!! This song is all about the two of them double teaming a lady, fantastic. Why the fuck didn't I see their movie when it was out?!? When this song gets going I just want to laugh. Gotta love the D. I love how this ends with 'HAIL SATAN!'.

9. Jay Dee-Beat 11

AKA J Dilla, this is just an unused Beat from one of his Beat CDs. Nice little thumping drums and airy keys, Dilla style. One of my top two favorite producers, Dilla Dawg always shows up on my hiphop mixes, he's the GOD of beats.

10. The Smiths-Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me

I love this song. I first downloaded it because I read Andre 3000 talking about it in an interview. The song is really cool, it talks about when you have a great dream and wake up and are hit with reality where the person that was in your dream might not be a part of your life. There's a really long intro to this song, but when it kicks in, it's great. Pretty fitting end to the shuffle too.
