I know I'm late to the party on the advantages of shuffle play, but the thing has come up with some lovely segues. As I sat waiting for the bus, a two-fer by the Church ("Maya" into "Song for the Asking") was followed by one of my favorite Weakerthans songs, "My Favorite Chords." Depeche Mode's "Here is the House," ending with ticking in only the left speaker, segued astonishingly effectively into Calla's "Strangler" starting with its crunch of guitar on the right. Lulled into a romantic mood by Kimberley Rew's "Honey Is That Love"? Let's follow with the Pogues and "The Gentleman Soldier"!
