Year End Disc: 2006

[mrpee]

I do an annual year-end CD as a holiday favor for pals & (suitably hep) family members. Consisting mostly of songs from the previous year and a sprinkling from the year prior,  mixed with clever/judicious segues from whenever.  I'm getting around to starting on this year's effort and would love to hear any suggestions/segue ideas . Here's what I put together last year (sections ----- are often broken up by v. short spoken word/movie dialogue snippets or weird shit)
 
 Black Mountain 'Modern Music'
 Architeture in Helsinki 'Frenchy I'm Faking'
 Clap Yr Hands Say Yeah 'By the Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth'
 
 ------
 
 Bran Van 3000 'Drinking in LA'
 Sam Prekop 'Chicago People'
 Steve Earle 'Home to Houston'
 ______
 
 Amadou & Miriam 'Je Pense A Toi'
 Gruff Rhys 'Ni Yw Y Byd'
 ______
 
 Mountain Goats 'Song For Dennis Brown'
 Bob Marley & the Wailers 'Mr. Brown'
 ______
 
 Jack Rose 'Kensington Blues'
 Animal Collective 'Who Could Win A Rabbit'
 John Vanderslice 'Angela'
 ______
 
 Thievery Corporation 'Sol Tapado'
 Mulata Astatke 'Yekermo Sew'

 Hold Steady 'Cattle & the Creeping Things'

destroyer "your blood"
 camera obscura "if looks could kill"
 band of horses "the funeral"
 
 those are three of my favorites from this year, that could make a decent little suite.

Thank you, Surly. I was well aware of the threads vansmack linked, but thought it might be fun to kick around segues of songs from this year with others, like the Mountain Goats/Marley combo above, or, using Booker's idea, adding Funeral for A Friend's "She Drove Me to Daytime Television" to his trio (not suggest FFOA are any good, but y'know...)

Sorry.
 
 I guess in my case I did give my 120 minutes (or year end CD with segues) and didn't feel like repeating myself.  Others likely did not.

I was protesting the year-end song and album list until we actually got to December...and now I just haven't gotten around to it yet.  Coming soon...
