This was a BBC radio programme where musicians were invited to put together an imaginery album of 12 of their favourite songs. They also talked about their career etc. I've had a quick listen to it (it's about an hour long) and listed the songs Christine picked. Here they are:

Satisfaction - Rolling Stones
I want you - The Graham Bond Organisation
Layla - Derek and the Dominoes
Casseopia Surrender - Mick Fleetwood
Babylon Sisters - Steeley Dan
Waterfalls - Paul McCartney
Cathy's Clown - The Everly Brothers
When I fall in Love - Nat King Cole (a lovely song to listen to at 3 o'clock in the morning)
Woman - John Lennon
I love L.A. - Randy Newman
Down Under - Men at work
Frozen Love - Buckingham Nicks (they sing beautifully together)

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to transcribe the whole thing but I might know someone who could transfer it to a CD and then I could post it somewhere like You Send it. I'll see what I can do.

Thanks, Gail! That's a very interesting list. I have quite a few of those songs. "Layla" is one of my favorite songs by anyone. And, I knew she'd get a Steely Dan song on there.

That would be even better than transcribing it. I was going to say something about transferring it to a digital format in my earlier post, but I didn't want to be presumptious. Good luck & thanks so much

Homer, do you still have the same e-mail address? Do you mind if I e-mail you? If not, I can send you a private message on the Ledge.

By the way, YouSendIt is easy. You just have to register, which is easy & free. As soon as you have your account set up, then you can upload what you want to send. It's very simple. Even I can figure it out.

Oh, OK, I misunderstood your post. I thought it was strange that I'd never seen this interview posted on the Ledge, since I never even knew this interview existed until last week.

I do remember when Steve posted both The Visitor & I'm Not Me. By the way, both of those albums are surprisingly very, very, very good.
