Derek Trucks,  Down To The Bone (self titled) , Umphrey's McGee,   
Blues Lounge (compilation) , Paul Thorn (live) ,  St. Germain  
(Tourist) , Junior Brown and Marvin Gaye  are the songs living on the  
Shuffle at the moment.

"What's Going On"  what a perfect song.

Junior Brown is just there for laughs.  "My Wife Thinks Your Dead" is  
great live.

Anyone here listening/using Pandora? <http://www.pandora.com/>

It's is just freaking amazing though it's darn hard on the wallet.    
I keep hearing music I like from folks I've never heard of.

That could be why  I only have $4 in my iTunes account at the moment.
