Did everyone like my new photo feature yesterday? I really hope that people enjoy it, because I enjoy doing it. I know it sucks having to click links instead of just seeing the image, but I don't think that's too much of a hardship.
Here's the Random Ten:
10 songs that sum up your weekend...or were on your weekend playlist...and one picture that relates back. (oh, and if you feel like it, tell us why you picked the songs you did)
1) Afro Celt Sound System - Eireann
2) Afro Celt Sound System - Mojave
3) Elvis Costello - Blue Chair
4) David Gray - Slow Motion
5) Coldplay - In My Place
6) Coldplay - Clocks
7) Led Zeppelin - When The Levee Breaks
8) Keri Noble - Ooh Oh
9) All 4 One - I Swear (this one is a key song in a movie I rented this weekend called "Just Friends")
10) Steppenwolf - Magic Carpet Ride
That last song makes me wonder why you don't hear the organ anymore in rock songs. I think today's young rock bands ought to break out the Hammond and put some stank on it. Here's a picture of the Hammond B-3, the secret weapon of many a 60s blues rock band:

Great choices! Glad you liked the Keri track :)

I just love the B3. I've got it all over my new CD! When it's played well, it works great in current music! Love your list.
An excellent question. Seems like they've all got a Roland Synthesizer and/or electric piano. Why not broaden the tonal horizon?
There used to be a show on the local NPR station out of Minnesota that did just organ music (mostly classical, but that didn't matter). Drop a tab or two and just lie between the speakers. Felt like I was inside the bellows. Far freaking out! LOL
