The Saturday Shuffle

Welcome to the first of what I hope will be a recurring feature, The Saturday Shuffle, whereby I turn my iPod onto shuffle and list the first 10 songs that play:

1. Son Volt, “Automic Society”
2. Eric Clapton, “I Found Love”
3. The Band, “Ferdinance the Imposter (Outtake/Demo)”
4. Pixies, “Vamos”
5. Lou Reed, “Heroin (live)”
6. Elvis Costello with Burt Bacharach, “In the Darkest Place”
7. Bruce Springsteen, “Froggie Went A-Courtin'”
8. Luiciana Souza/Romero Lubambo, “Muita Bobeira”
9. The Ramones, “Have a Nice Day”
10. Bob Dylan, “Mississippi”

I think the Souza track came with my laptop as a demo song, because I don’t remember ever buying it.
