Local Forecast / Re: Top 100 Greatest Songs of This Decade?! (2000-2009)
« on: July 20, 2009, 05:02:13 PM »
Here are my Top 50 songs this decade, five per yr
2000:
Florian's Cafe by Shahin and Sepehr from World Cafe*
Peeto Bandito by Peter White from Promenade*
Snake Dance by the Rippingtons from Topaz*
Quarter to 2* by Wayne Gerard n/a
Nothing In This World by Brian Hughes from One 2 One*
2001:
Rudolf Nureyev by Love Tractor from This ain't No Outer Space Ship*
Still in the Duece by Funktelligence from ...Until Now* (also used in late 2000)
Keanae* by John Maellaro n/a
Night Wind by Ryan Farish from Selected Works* (formerly Daydreamer)
Zuma Beach by Bryan Savage from Rush Hour*
2002:
Innocent Kiss by Craig Chaquico from Shadow of Light*
Pink Floyd - Terminal Frost (single)*- A Lapse of Momentary Reason
Deep Shallow band - Love Is You* - n/a
Steve Oliver - High Noon from Positive Energy*
Atlantica by Ryan Farish from Beautiful* (formerly Daydreamer)
Note - 2002 was a hard year for me to pick songs since i think IMO is the year with the least number of good "TWC-grade" music
2003:
El Ciudad de Suenos by Steve Glotzer from Lately*
Trade Winds by Eddie Reasoner from Special Weather *(also used 2001)
The Birthday Song by Joshua Redman from Elastic*
Along The Way by Brian Hughes from Along The Way*
All Tucked Out by Steve Glotzer from Life Imitates Art*
I also found 2003 a rather lean year for good TWC music
2004 though I think had an abundance of good TWC music. Its hard for me to pick just 5, but here it goes:
Passage by CC Gilmore n/a (New Jazz*)
Up All Night by Ron Fattorusso from Up All Night*
Candle Light by Ed Stone n/a*
Head To Toe by Birds of a Feather from Best Of*
Second Look by Samuel Lincoln n/a (New Jazz*)
many others, such as Samuel Lincoln/Cocoon or Under The Stars and Steve Glotzer/Quien Sabe also can be easily subbed in there too
2005 also had an abundance of good TWC music, here is my top 5:
Smooth Ride by Ursula Suzana Pacheco from U.S.P.*
Winged Mammal Theme by R.E.M. from Drive*
