kashmir_ki_kali's Friendship Stimulus gift. Will be uploading the actual tracks and a .zip of the complete mix over the next few hours: It's all up; have at it!
Stop the Progress, I Want to Get Off
complete mix
1. "The Last Trip Home" - Battlefield Band
But progress runs its driven course
And tractors [have] replaced the horse
2. "Silver Darlin's" – Battlefield Band
But the lads that used [to] work them
They've gone for better pay
3. "Men o' Worth" – Ed Miller
But when the work is o’re, and my boat rots on the shore
How will I feed my family when the companies move away?
4. "Smith & Taylor" – Chumbawamba
Every maiden voyage leaves a widow on the shore
And every blessed spire sees the earth get its reward
5. "City of New Orleans" – Tom Rush
The conductor sings his song again:
"Passengers will please refrain
This train's got the disappearing railroad blues."
6. "I Ain't Got No Home" – Bruce Springsteen
Now I worry all the time like I never did before
'Cause I ain’t got no home in this world anymore
7. "The MTA" – Kingston Trio
When he got there the conductor told him
"One more nickel."
Charlie couldn’t get off that train
8. "Cities" – Talking Heads
What do I smell? I smell home cooking
It's only the river, it's only the river
9. "What Have They Done to the Rain?" – Joan Baez
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain?
10. "Where Do the Children Play?" – Cat Stevens
Well you've cracked the sky, scrapers fill the air
Will you keep on building higher
'Til there's no more room up there?
11. "Mercedes Benz" – Janis Joplin
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends
12. "57 Channels (And Nothin' On)" – Bruce Springsteen
We switched 'round and 'round 'til half-past dawn
There was fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
13. "Big Yellow Taxi" – Joni Mitchell
They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum
And then they charged all the people a dollar and a half to see 'em
14. "Pleasant Valley Sunday" – The Monkees
Rows of houses that are all the same
And no one seems to care
15. "The Great Unknown" – Dar Williams
And we looked out to see your enemies
And we see that you're looking all at us instead
16. "Won't Get Fooled Again" – Pete Townsend
I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do you?
17. "The Universal Soldier" – Buffy Sainte-Marie
And, brothers, can't you see?
This is not the way we put an end to war.
18. "Space Oddity" – David Bowie
Here am I floating 'round my tin can, far above the moon
Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do
19. "Marathon" – Cast, Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris
So we keep on dancing, dancing
We can't rest
20. "A Place Called England" – June Tabor
Someone's sown a patch of sunflowers, though the soil is sooty black
Marigolds and a few tomatoes, right beside the railway track
( some notes )
Enjoy!
