Let the brass bands play (Eclectic Playlist Series 10.4)

We'll launch this month's mix with one of rock'n'roll's all-time great singles and then take the usual trip through decades and genres to land, ultimately, in a pretty-much genre-less 21st-century instrumental inspired by the poetry of e.e. cummings. You know, just another run-of-the-mill internet playlist. Stick around for the whole ride and you'll hear power pop, classic R&B, Americana, some pre-Beatles rock'n'roll from an unexpected source, a couple of generations of indie rock, and maybe something in there qualifying around the edges as classic rock too. There are even a couple of bonafide hit singles in here this time. Note that I have nothing against hits, they just have to be *good*, not merely popular, and there is no arguing the all-time quality of "Reach Out I'll Be There," however familiar (to some) it might be.
