Finally getting back to practicing before this year’s Norwescon! The usual randomness, slower for the first hour, faster for the final half hour.

Difficult Listening Hour 2020.06.27
Week eighteen of my unplanned, unrehearsed, seat-of-the-pants goofing around. As a way of getting back into practice and doing something regularly, I’ve started doing regular Twitch broadcasts, now on Saturday mid-mornings. These are the results. Anything goes.
Sounds From the Lost Abbey 09
Back in February, I took up a challenge from one of my friends (prompted by the Gigs mix I posted) to create a mix based around songs that I’d have played at the Lost Abbey, during the mid- to late-1990s. To get a little help putting together the playlist, I put out a call for requests on Facebook, and ended up with something around 14 hours of possible songs, almost entirely pulled from requests by people who used to see me spin at the Lost Abbey.
Since 14 hours is far too long to do as a single mix, I’ve broken the requests up into multiple 80-ish-minute playlists. Here’s the ninth in the series!
Songs, A-Z
Well, I didn’t read the rules of this game after I saw D’s list, so this list might seem a little odd. Rather than just list songs that start with a letter, I chose songs that I have in my .mp3 library, and where both the song title and the artist started with the respective letter of the alphabet. Uff!
The only times I couldn’t get a match for both were for X and Z, so I listed two songs, one for the song title that matched the letter, and one for the artist.
