On the last day of my 45th year, I was invited to be a guest on Mixcloud Live’s Club Peace Pipe Radio to do an all 45 set. Having done a 45 45s set for my 45th in 2020, I thought it would be a grand opportunity to do a sort of remix of that set, giving me the chance to put some of my favorite 45s that made it into that mix in different spots and a different context, and to include a number of records that didn’t make it into the set last year, as well as some new additions to my collection, added over the past year. Aside from that desire, I didn’t do much planning on the set, preferring to largely do it stream of consciousness and see where the spirit would take me. I felt a bit rusty, but I’m pleased with the results and so I thought I’d share the set here for folks. Didn’t quite get to 45 total 45s this time around, but came pretty close in the time I was allowed, and as you might expect from me, the set definitely goes a variety of places. Big thanks to Octavio, Hymnal and Mixmaster Wolf for being gracious hosts and to Amanda Alderman for setting things up…it made for a very happy pre-birthday bright moment, indeed.
