Saturday Shuffle 130

 


Even the random Shuffle knows an American Idiot when they hear one 

Green Day first released American Idiot in 2004. Let's face it Trump was an idiot event then but he has progressed from the Village Idiot to the World Idiot. He should get a prize for that

Although Deportee (Plane Wreck at Los Gatos) is from earlier times it is still relevant today, ICE would probably shoot it down. Here the classic song by Woody Guthrie is covered by Dave Alvin and Jimmie Dale Gilmore.

Without the immigrants there would probably be no-one Working in a Coalmine. Here Lee Dorsey does the heavy shovelling.

The Shuffle will be back next Saturday if we are spared.


Green Day - American Idiot

Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore - Deportee (Plane Wreck at Los Gatos)

Lee Dorsey - Working in a Coalmine

  1. I'm not convinced your first selection was entirely random. Second and third selections are excellent.
