Got in a bit late today (but nobody complained). Inspired by a new documentary on Elvis Costello, that included his songwriting with Paul McCartney, I played a set of some of their collaborations.
That led into a little set of Dylan and Dylan covers, since he is playing the Lyric Opera House in Baltimore tomorrow. It was followed by a sampling from Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, who will also be here Saturday — at the Black Cat.
Closed with a couple things each from Sufjan Stevens, Bjork and Thievery Corporation. But the big news about the show is that it was the first to be streaming live worldwide, from this link.
