Sunday morning music

Thanks to KCRW and "The Lab" with Jason Kramer for some greatSunday morning listening. Here were a few of my favorites:

Corrina: Taj Mahal 

One Love: Bob Marley / Bill Laswell, from the great collection Dreams of Freedom: Ambient Translations of Bob Marley

Hello Friends: 45
Tainted Love: Gloria Jones
El Mambo B-Boys: Red Astaire
Dance Dance Dance: Lykke Li (Lykke Li's home page and MySpace page)

Bored with the music you're listening to? KCRW is a great place to break away from the music blahs. Always intelligent, always engaging, and often highly danceable. If you're already a fan, you should pledge your support today. The station has a drawing coming up May 5 with some amazing prizes including a MacBook Air.
