Because of the way my musical tastes (or lack thereof) fluorished and flowered, I actually learned about AC/DC from this track and soundtrack album and had to work my way backwards. Still, this one holds a special place in my heart.

On a totally unrelated note, I believe I'm spinning some disco tonight at Palmer's with Mason. Come see me play....not this!

This one finally stuck with me after hearing it in the grocery store, of all places. My grocery store actually carries a pretty hip soundtrack much of the time - maybe you've seen my occasional Facebook status about it? No? Well....I've done it

It LOOKS like there's a pattern....but I'm looking ahead, and all I can see is that it's stuff I haven't shared yet. But...

Happy Monday!

OK but for real please come to this one Saturday afternoon and bring some money - not for us (NO COVER!) but to donate and/or spend on sweet, sweet booze. And nachos. Club Jäger is generously donating a portion of all bar sales! And then you can go do what you were gonna do anyway Saturday night with a slightly clearer conscience.

This was one of those cut-out import singles I'd buy in bulk at the Walnut Creek Tower Records coming back home from a Sacramento Kings game. It doesn't get more late 90s than that for me sometimes. Remix in the comments later! Have a great weekend!

Hello, alleged fans of DJ CRZ! I will be playing records TWICE next week with Mr. Mason Butler: Wednesday (7 Dec) night at Palmer's Bar we will be going back to back for a set inspired by the late David Mancuso - well, really, they all are, but for my part I'll be moving a little closer to the year I was born than usual - and then Saturday (10 Dec) we will BOTH be joined by Amanda Moon for a 3-way throwdown where it'll be a matinee of electronic ecstasy at Clubhouse Jäger to benefit Standing Rock. I promise you will NOT want to miss the chance to see me standing like a mannequin behind two turntables and a mixer wearing headphones! And thanks again to Mason and KFAI Vinyl Voices for letting me...um....voice. With vinyl. TWO TIMES

Monday I played "Spotlight" - here was another Madonna track added to the "You Can Dance" collection which actually made it without alteration - it was already perfect.

It's Black Friday but I have nothing even tenuously connected to share with you, so here's some Beats International. Have a great weekend if you're not already in the middle of it! This is the video version...I believe I have the album version somewhere, too, so look for another link in a comment later.

Just to prove we have absolutely no theme, here's something a high school friend listened to which has stuck with me to this day and is pretty far off from what I usually share with you, but it makes me smile and maybe you'll get into it by accident, too. I still have this cassette somewhere...

As I look ahead to the end of the year, it looks like I don't have any real themes left, just sharing stuff I like which I haven't shared yet. This has been an interesting project and there are WAY more than 366 songs out there I could have shared. Thanks for following me.

One Christmas Madonna released a nonstop remix album and it was the greatest Christmas ever. This was the "new" single from that one and here it is "unmixed." In the comments I'll get around to linking you to the mixed version as a YouTube playlist, assuming it still exists when we get there.

Happy Monday!

I could make ELO week last a lot longer than a week - so many gems! This one was probably the first one I really remember hearing on the radio when it came out and probably kindled a lifelong love of hooks. I wasn't exposed to the video until what I'm sure was widely considered a much more appropriate age.

Let's go out with some drum'n'bass (and then continue with that this weekend) - hey, HAVE a great weekend!

I would hate to ruin this song for you so I will try to make you have to click to learn that...

...it totally rips off that sweet chord progression from The Doors' "Light My Fire" (in case you couldn't place it and it was driving you insane).
