Those who have not been here before, this is becoming a weekly post of the first 5 songs I listen to (random shuffle mode) on my iPod when I get home from work on Monday. I hope this introduces you to some new listening and maybe rekindles some memories. Either way, I hope you find something to enjoy!
------------------------------------------------------
Here is this weeks 5 wildly diverse sounds...
1. Avenged Sevenfold - Almost Easy (this will get you energized and ready to rock)
2. Ben Harper - Steal My Kisses (aww...how sweet is this song, share with your mate)
3. The Sensational Alex Harvey Band - Faith Healer (if you are new to Alex Harvey and like this, pick The Sensation Alex Harvey Band album/CD/download and listen to Swamp Snake, Midnight Moses, The Tomahawk Kid, etc. Love this band from the 70's)
4. The Byrds - 8 Miles High (60's, psychedelic, nuff said)
5. The Cars - Candy O (music from this band could put you in as trance, At least that's what I've heard. At least Moving In Stereo.)
Are any of these familar? Hear anything knew? Comments?

mmmmm....trippin' down memory lane!
Loved SAHB esp this
Nice to hear the Byrds again, too (will have to excavate the old vinyl collection.....)
Avenged Sevenfold was something constantly shoved under my nose by my son in his teens so I'm familiar with them but not sure I've heard this track before.
...and Cars - ah, summer memories in my youth!
Newbie for me in this selection is Ben Harper so thanks, Chuck, for the introduction!
i like the list... i need to know how many song you have on the ipod... and the shuffle ratio... i have a usb on my car stereo that has about 600 songs in it... it always shuffles the same every day.
Avenged Sevenfold - awesome! And Candy-O is still a classic.
Yay! I always love the new music recommendations. Another great batch.

Okay, you got me this time! I know the 2, 4 and 5, but not the other two! I'll check them out...
Sue: You are a fan of SAHB!! That is so cool. His music was kind of all over the place but I listened to it...a lot! The Avenged track is probably one of their top airplay songs recently. I am glad you are enjoying this.
Zombie: On this iPod I have about 400 - 450 songs currently. I can't speak to the shuffle ratio (never really heard that term) but it is random. Periodically I download a new additions to the playlist from my PC.
Alex: I knew you were an Avenged fan and you're right about Candy-O. I remember the days of listening to the Cars and just hanging out. Always good pool music in the summers!
Sarah: I hope you find something new and exciting to listen too in these Monday escapades.
Pat: Well those other two are extremes from each other...Avenged is a fairly new and hot band while Alex Harvey entertained me a lot back in the 70's. Check out the songs I mentioned on the post from him and his band.
Thanks for bringing back the Byrds. They have such a nice, soothing, poppyseed muffin kinda sound. On that note, thanks, Chuck. I'm rather naive in certain arenas (eg drugs), and I guess I still had marijuana in mind since my Higher Calling post.

Robyn: Yes, the Byrds did tjhe song 8 Miles High...but you knew that. I always got your back on stuff like that.
Thanks, Chuck! Smiles.
