Sun Ra "Pink elephants on parade" - just magic, makes me smile every time.

Lalo Schifrin "Jaws" - do a dancefloor version of the theme from Jaws! A 1976 mission impossible methinks not :-)

Freddie Roach - "It ain't necessarily so" - I have this on loop a lot, play it loud.

Got up onstage and danced with Yako during this. Usually would be a stupid, brainless move, but the moment seemed right.

Somehow missed one of my all time favourites Julie Driscoll & Brian Auger's version of Donovan's Season of the Witch.
song's also great by Dream Syndicate on Day Before Wine & Roses
