    December 2022 Vinyl Spin Challenge: The Intergalactic Mixtape Dance-Off!

    Day 19 – My Sweet Lord My Sweet Lord is villain Ego The Living Planet’s introduction song in Guardians Vol. 2. Play the song that would introduce you if you were a villain. Optional: what kind of villain would you be? To me, Phil Collin's "In The Air tonight" would make a pretty bad-ass...

    Day 18 – Southern Nights Play something southern (southern part of a country, southern hemisphere, etc…). New Orleans LA is relatively southern, from my perspective in Canada. So, I'm playing the song "It Ain't My Fault" by the Wild Magnolias with Big Chief Bo Dollis on their album "Wild Side(s)".

    Day 17 – Bring It On Home To Me Play something featuring the word “yeah”. Turbo, I'm gonna MURDERIZE YOU next time we get together. I had to pull out the barely-readable lyric sheets for a bunch of records to find something for today. I landed of Toni Braxton's newest album "SPELL MY NAME"...

    Day 15 – Lake Shore Drive Play some spaceship flying music - what’s on your stereo when you’re cruising around the stars? Carly Rae Jepsen's song (feat. Rufus Wainwright) "The Loneliest Time" is the best spaceship-flying-song this year, IMHO. Also, maybe I'll flush out any hidden "Jepsies" on...

    Day 14 – Fox On The Run Play an artist/album that you seem to be one of the few people that listens to them/it. If you wish, tell us why we should listen too. I've been told Charlie Wilson is pretty popular among older black women; so, as a middle aged white guy, not many of my friends listen...

    Day 13 – Mr. Blue Sky What’s the weather where you live today? Tell us what it’s like and play something that goes with it. I know there are a bunch of people on this board who listen to British jazz, so Django Bates is probably familiar to them. I heard him at the Montreal Jazz Fast a several...

    Day 11 – O-o-h Child Play something bright, hopeful and/or positive. Even though Jaco Pastorius' mental state deteriorated soon after this live tour was recorded, it has a very positive vibe that was inspired by the birth of his twin sons. I'm putting Liberty City on my mixtape from this album.

    Day 10 – Escape (The Pina Colada Song) Escape the winter and play something tropical. I mean... c'mon! A picture disc of an Oscar D'León album, how cool! Track 3, Sandunguera is going on my mixtape. Funny story, me and my wife played an Oscar D'León track as our wedding song, and performed a...

    Day 9 – Cherry Bomb Play something that features fireworks, explosions or fire, either in song or album art. Or play an album by a girl band. The City Girls; my favourite girl band these days. And, Panties An Bra is the jam going on my mixtape.

    Day 8 – Come And Get Your Love Ok, so you’re this really cool adventurer and you’re navigating with finesse and style through an ancient temple filled with traps to get an ancient artifact. Play your soundtrack. Strangely, as soon as I read today's theme, the music from Blue Rondo A La Turk by...

    Day 7 – I Want You Back Play something you haven’t played in a long time. And dance around like baby Groot. My early 00's were dominated by salsa clubs, and nothing got me dancing more than Cuban Timba music. Maraca is one of my favourite Timba bands. Puttin' "Castígala" on my mixtape.

    Day 6 – I’m Not In Love Play an album/artist/genre you were really into for a while. Or from a rabbit hole you dove into for a while. I'm putting "Port Tobacco" on my tape. Bluegrass is wonderful music, but I needed a break.

    Day 5 – Fooled Around And Fell In Love Play some Yacht Rock, or anything related to fools, sailing or sipping champagne.\ When it comes to vibing on a yacht, nothing beats the video for Aaliyah's "Rock The Boat"! Saldly, she passed away on the flight returning from filming this video :(

    Day 4 – Moonage Daydream Play some glam rock or anything glamorous. So many Glam Rock bands on this compilation; and such a wicked-awesome record! I'm putting Tina Turner's "What's Love Got To Do With It" on my mix.
