Playlist 10-15-10

Salutes to some soul men who died this week — Solomon Burke and General Johnson of the Chairman of the Board.

A taste of Conan O’Brien’s musical album (in lieu of ads for his impending talk show), new stuff from Isobel Campbll & Mark Lanegan, Mark Ronson and especially The Love Language (in lieu of a phone interview planned for the show).

And a salute to some other acts playing the area this weekend, from Paul Anka to Alice Cooper.
