Notes:
I only got through 72 songs today as I was away from my desk quite a bit today.  It was a good day for multiple versions and covers, as you can see above.  There were a few others aside from all of those as well.
The best run of the day started with all three versions of "Boom Boom" and then went into:
  • "Boom, Like That" by Mark Knopfler
  • "Boot-Leg" by Booker T & the MGs
  • "Boot Hill" by Stevie Ray Vaughan
Tomorrow is the beginning of the MLB playoffs, so listening time will be limited...  But I'll keep this blog up to date as I listen!
