Spitball Army

I took a week off from playlisting last Sunday, and later found out that one of this website’s visitors – left adrift without the weekly dose of tunes from me – took matters into his own hands and created his own program.  Great! says I.  He even posted it as a comment here for me to see.  An interesting playlist it is, as you will doubtless find out soon enough, and a fun and entertaining hour of music.

Bureaucratist, as he calls himself and his blog, also posted the list of songs that make up this playlist on his own website.  There, it extends past the 63 minute length that you’ll find on this page.  If you can scrounge up those additional songs, you’ll be treated to double doses of Steely Dan and The Housemartins…perfect for a Sunday (or any day).  Run with it, and enjoy.

Approximate playing time: 63 minutes.
