Thanks for the @ mention and shoutout. ;) As soon as I saw the comment notification I grabbed a big jug of iced tea, threw the episode on my ipad, and went outside to sit in the sun (first 30°C day here in Ontario!) to listen to it. The end of the episode coincided with the sun going behind the incoming thunderclouds too, so that was almost perfect timing, and was a lovely way to spend the afternoon.
You featured a number of singers I love, songs I was familiar with (though a few versions I hadn't heard before), and a number of singers/songs that I haven't heard before either (especially the more modern stuff). Annie Ross' Twisted is one of my absolute favorites too BTW. Thanks for putting this together!
