• There is a song on the Jimmy Witherspoon collection called "Once There Lived A Fool" that knocked me out. I was ready to make it a Song Of The Day, but YouTube only has a version from years later. It's a solid version, but if you could track down the version from 1951, it'd be worth your time.
• "New Sensations" is def top 5 Lou.

I remember liking New Sensations. I'm not a big fan, but what are the other four?
The first Lou Reed gig I saw was on the New Sensations tour. Robert Quine on guitar, Fernando Saunders on fretless bass, and Fred Maher on drums were one killer band.

I’m enjoying a first spin of Stardust Five. An earlier collaboration Paul Kelly did with Peter Luscombe was Professor Ratbaggy who I got to see live long ago while down under. It’s a reggae/dub concoction that works better than expected. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPHMs5wI-Fw&list=OLAK5uy_kPJ134caVXim2GoorzVVmgXGenXpyCvLo
