Not So Slim Shady

 


For some strange reason three quarters of yesterday's post turned out shaded.

I've no idea how that happened and more importantly I have no idea how to rectify it.

Rather than worrying about it I'm turning it in to a positive by featuring some Shady songs today. Don't panic  when you see the picture above as I have nothing by Mr Mathers III.

Let's start with some Folk and the legends that are Simon and Garfunkel with A Hazy Shade of Winter. I also have the Bangles version on vinyl but you can't improve on perfection.

It's country next with Henson Cargill and Four Shades of Love taken from the great compilation Choctaw Ridge  - New Fables of The American South 1968 - 1973.

Some Alternative Country next courtesy of Conor Oberst aka Bright Eyes with The Difference in the Shades from his album Letting Off the Happiness.

Finally whereas a Reggae number is not necessarily mandatory in this instance it is always good to have one. Step forward please Third World with 96 Degrees in the Shade.

Nothing shady about those four songs as I'm sure you'll agree


Simon and Garfunkel -A Hazy Shade of Winter

Henson Cargill - Four Shades of Love

Bright Eyes - The Difference in the Shades

Third World - 96 Degrees in the Shade
