Late Night Tales: The Broken Parade



Background:

'Late Night Tales' and its predecessor 'Another Late Night' are the names of two related series of DJ mix albums released on Azuli Records independent record label. The tracks on the albums are selected and mixed by a diverse selection of DJs, recording artists, and bands, asked "to compile an album of their favorite music that inspired them to make music their profession - their favorite of the favorites".

After a year or more of constantly taking this project off the shelf and putting it back on the shelf, I have completed my own "Late Night Tales" compilation. The following is my ideal soundtrack for 1:30 a.m. to 4:00 a.m., when the weight of the world seems heavier than normal.

Brian Eno - "Sparrowfall (1)"
Jefferson Airplane - "Today"
Elliott Smith - "Twilight"
Black Sabbath - "Changes"
Roxy Music - "Jealous Guy"
Moby - "At Least We Tried"
