Robster - "Medicine & Health"

Hello friends,

and yes, here comes the next request in my little series of being too kind to you all. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about: lately I found so much enjoyment in working with this mixer I downloaded that I decided to offer to you to make your very own little mix ... you choose the topic, I choose the tunes!

A few people have responded so far, one of them being The Robster who runs one of the best blogs I know, "Is This the Life?". I can only very strongly recommend that you visit his site on a daily basis, his posts and musical choices are of outstanding quality!

Therefore I was very pleased when The Robster wrote in as thus:

"I work in the largest Hospital in Wales. So how about some medical/health related tunes/artists?"

Your will is my command, mate, so I hope you like what I found for you ... enjoy:


 
 
Would be neat to know via a few comments whether I am the only one who thinks that this was indeed absolutely super!
 
Thanks .... and get well soon!
 
Dirk

Robster wrote in, saying:




May I offer by way of bonus tracks:
'Auto-Surgery' by Therapy?
'He Who Would Valium Take' by Half Man Half Biscuit
and anything by Clinic





Well, of course you may and here you are:




mp3: Therapy? - 'Auto-Surgery' ('93)
mp3: Half Man Half Biscuit - 'He Who Would Valium Take' ('97)
mp3: Clinic - 'The Return Of Evil Bill' ('00)


Second edit:


Just realized Brian had some fine suggestions as well in the comments section:


Dirk, I'm beginning to understand why you enjoy this so much. A couple of hospital tunes...
Take Me Down to the Hospital by the Replacements, Rock 'N' Roll Drummer Straight From The Hospy-Tel by Jonathan Richman



mp3: Replacements - 'Take Me Down To The Hospital' ('96)
mp3: Jonathan Richman - 'Rock 'n' Roll Drummer Straight From The Hospy-Tel' ('83)


Enjoy,


Dirk

Great choice with Headache. That's from my favorite post-Pixies album from Frank Black.
