Brian’s excuse this week is that you can’t well make a travelling playlist without flying around a bit, and the daft old owl got himself a bit mislaid going over Tunbridge Wells. We also had words about the final track on the list, which as you can see isn’t exactly typical FFS fare. Unfortunately Brian would not be persuaded, so feel free to end your experience at track 10 if you’re not in the mood for a bit of schmaltz.
Here it is, though, better late than never. Brian’s A to B playlist:
1. Eels – Susan’s House
2. Broadcast 2000 – Over Soon
3. Aimee Mann – Driving Sideways
4. The Travelling Band – Lonely Day to Take a Train
5. Jeffrey Lewis and the Junkyard – Roll Bus Roll
6. Herman Düne – My Home is Nowhere Without You
7. The Magnetic Fields – Drive on, Driver
8. Blue Roses – I am Leaving
9. Peter Broderick – Not at Home
10. The Decemberists – The Engine Driver
11. The Carpenters – Ticket to Ride.
