DELIBERATE SPEED











In a jetlag haze last Friday evening I played a thoroughly enjoyable DJ set with the nom de decks of Deliberate Speed for Beatrix's new Facebooked night at the Silo Theatre Bar: Time After Time. One hour per decade. I was up first, early at 7 pm, with the 1950s. A chance to dust off the old R&B and rockabilly in particular. But here's the list of tunes I played. Can't remember the exact order though. Thanks to the friends who came by.

Cannonball Adderley - Autumn Leaves
The Everly Brothers - Who's Gonna Shoe Your Pretty Little Feet
