Bonnie’s picks:
“Electrified” by Ben Sollee (from Inclusions)
“In The Beginning” by Todd Snider (from Agnostic Hymns & Stoner Fables)

*leading directly into*
“Love Ain’t Enough” by The Barr Brothers (from Sleeping Operator)
(The seamless transition between these songs to begin an album in this era of music production is not only brilliant, it is also a bold artistic statement valuing the concept of “the album” in the year 2016.)
Bridget’s picks:
“Here And Heaven” from The Goat Rodeo Sessions (a collaborative album by Yo-Yo Ma, Stuart Duncan, Edgar Meyer, and Chris Thile)
“Rain” by Sea Stars (from Zodiac)
“Ripple” by The Grateful Dead (from American Beauty)
“Home” by Xavier Rudd (from Dark Shades Of Blue)
Charlie’s picks:
“Shiver Me Timbers” by Tom Waits (from The Heart Of Saturday Night)
