Baker's Dozen - the herculean task of selecting 13 favourite songs.

The list will probably change by tomorrow - at least some of it. That's the problem with favourite lists.

Nevertheless, here goes...

The Kinks – Waterloo Sunset
Revolution – The Beatles
See Me Feel Me – The Who
Heroes – David Bowie
Pretty Vacant – The Sex Pistols
White Man in Hammersmith Palais – The Clash
Down in the Tube Station at Midnight – The Jam
Khe Sanh – Cold Chisel
Leaps & Bounds – Paul Kelly
Hoodoo Gurus – Bittersweet
She Sells Sanctuary – The Cult
Brompton Oratory – Nick Cave
Love is Stronger than Death – The The

 

[Martin Alvito]

I wrote down a top ten recently (not easy), not that you've ever heard at least half of them. I get three more that I cut?

Neurotically Wired - Arch/Matheos
A.D.I./Horror of It All - Anthrax
Other Side of the Rainbow - Extreme
Happy - King's X
Professional Killer - KMFDM
Ashes in Your Mouth - Megadeth
Spreading the Disease - Queensryche
Turn the Page - Rush
Raspberry Jam Delta V - Joe Satriani
Elemental - Tears for Fears

Hmm...

The Ultra-Violence - Death Angel
A Clear and Present Rager - Nuclear Power Trio
Practice What You Preach - Testament

Didn't get any less obscure, now did it?

But I will let you off because Husker Du are boss.

Tears for Fears seems to be the odd one out in this heavy rock family

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

This is a selection of 13 tracks from this week’s Apple Music Favourites list. I doubt if any would make it onto my actual list, but I’d say it’s a fairly representative cross section of the genres that would feature.

Top of my head:

Hey! Johnny Park - Foo Fighters
Rookie - Boy Sets Fire
The Boxer - Simon & Garfunkel
Don’t Let Go (Love) - En Vogue
Falling to Pieces - Faith No More
Recapturing the Vibe (Restrung) - Hilltop Hoods
Hip to be Square - HLATN
The Circle - Ocean Colour Scene
(Sic) - Slipknot
War Pigs - Sabbath
Having a Blast - Green Day
Island in the Sun - Weezer
Passenger - Deftones

Tried to limit it to one song per band, or it’d probably just be a best of Foo Fighters list.

This would be different on a different day. Tried not to repeat artists.

Not in order of favouritism, but did move songs around for a better running order.

Last day of holiday today, so am gonna make this playlist and listen by the pool.

Release The Pressure - Leftfield
Unfinished Sympathy - Massive Attack
Loaded - Primal Scream
Heard it through the Grapevine - Marvin Gaye
Gimme Shelter - Rolling Stones
Love in Vain - Robert Johnson
Something - The Beatles
Where did you sleep last Night - Ledbelly
Take Yo Praise - Camille Yarborough
Lifting me Higher - Jackie Wilson
Hard to Handle - Otis Redding
Good Times - The Stone Rosés
Kashmir - Led Zeppelin

 

[LocalNative]

Placing the artist to the right of the song name is really annoying me for some reason

 

[Charro]

13 isnt enough

Head rolls off would be in mine no question.
