Whenever I'm in the mood for one of my favorite albums - yes, in spite of iTunes shuffle, I still sometimes listen to albums - I open up my iTunes library and type in a catchy little search phrase that will reduce the playlist to the songs on that album. The trick is to come up with a phrase that will include every song from the album and omit any songs from other albums that my sneak on becuase of similar themes/images/terms. Below are some of my favorites:
jew lite - "Starlite Walker" The silver jews
blood on the bob - "Blood on the Tracks" zimmy
enchanted men - "Slanted & Enchanted" pavement
forgot to impress - "The Young Mod's Forgotten Story" The Impressions
spring bra - "Nebraska" The Boss
mount the goat tree - "The Sunset Tree" Mountain Goats
genius words - "Liquid Swords" Genius/GZA
Whale call - "Woke on a Whaleheart" Bill Callahan
eat pepper - Sgt. Pepper's
plugged i n - Miles Davis, "Live at the Plugged Nickel, 1965"
