For the second week in a row, you’re being treated to a playlist curated by the irrepressible Thee Wee Baby Seamus, who continued his superb job of filling in during my vacation with the topic of “Can We Talk About It” – a playlist of songs about “talking, not talking, avoiding talking, talking too much, or anything else involving communications.”  In a roundabout way of keeping with the theme, I’m offering DJ 3000 an olive branch and again letting him choose the Pick of the Week in spite of the way he spat raw electricity into my face last week.  So this time, the Pick of the Week goes to…

Hey, not bad, DJ 3000!  I’m glad we kept the T-1 line open.  The pick was made by ALXMAC, whose faithful contributions late in the day have not gone unnoticed but probably haven’t received proper appreciation until now.  Good call, DJ 3000.  Keep it up and we’ll see if we can find a chance for you to host the show someday.

Next up is Rage Against the Machine, a topic hastily tossed out there by yours truly after a computing mixup ate the bulk of an unfinished post that I’ll revive this week.  The Pick of the Week on this one goes to Low Commander of the Super Soldiers for his choice of “Ty Cobb” by Soundgarden as we approach the one year anniversary of the passing of the incredibly talented Chris Cornell.
