A slightly different selection from the one published in the Itunes Music Store (see earlier post). On friday he talks about future projects. Two albums! A hiphop one and an album with ‘proper’ songs. Yummy.. [...] […] Last week Green had the opportunity to choose some of his favourite tracks for Ken Bruce’s show on BBC Radio 2.

It grabbed me then and has never let go. It's amazing how fresh it still sounds lo these many years. ‘The Word Girl’ is a masterpiece, but my favorite Green song is the first Scritti song I ever heard-’Hypnotize’.

So there! :p ;) It's a common mistake (more than a few reviewers have even misquoted the title as being <i>Come on feel the Illinoise</i>), but you need look no further than the CD spine. Just for fun - if anyone here were asked to supply a Celebrity Playlist for iTunes, which Scritti Politti track would you go for? I'd say "The 'sweetest girl'" would probably be the obvious choice, but I think I'd select "The word girl." It still gives me goosepimples. What Joe said. So there! :p ;)

He's doing an album for each of the 50 states, although he has done only 2 so far. The confusion lies with the album cover which is more of an introduction than a title. It is a wonderful album. I use it as a mood elevator. He has the longest song titles I've ever seen! http://www.asthmatickitty.com/music.php?releaseID=16 The Sufjan Stevens album title is Illinois.

I've always thought "Surf's up" would make a great Scritti cover, oddly enough (that or "'Til I die"). Gotta pull out my copy of <i>Cut</i> now...

Personally I prefer Joni's 'The Hissing of Summer Lawns' which still blews my mind. And it's good to see Parliament in that list. I am a huge funk fan too ;) Interesting list.
