the spooning soundtrack

So last night was the food-themed Fix Tape Exchange. I came up with a mix that I think of now as the Spooning Soundtrack. Some double-entendres, some irreverence, a little old-timey, topped with some crazy word jazz.  Here is the mix so you can recreate it for yourself! Or get in touch and I'll mail you a CD. (Thanks to Kyle, official Spooning music consultant, for three of the best tracks.)

Everybody Eats When They Come to My House/ Cab Calloway
Summer Wine/ Lee Hazlewood & Nancy Sinatra  
Ain't the Gravy Good?/ Duke Ellington   
Jambalaya/ CCR   
Dead Shrimp Blues/ Robert Johnson   
Black Coffee/ Peggy Lee 
The Gray Goose / Lead Belly   
Chocolate Jesus/ Tom Waits   
The Frim Fram Sauce /  Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong 
Hunger Is From/ Ken Nordine   

Of course, it being an exchange, I left with a new mix too! I'm looking forward to listening to some new ones (Rice Pudding/ Sufjan Stevens, Marmalade Fires/ Mum) and some old favorites (Honey Pie, Psycho Candy). Fun!
