Idle curiosity: Why 15? Did the alcohol add five or subtract?

1. Resolution - John Coltrane
2. Track B - Duet Solo Dancers - Charles Mingus
3. A Day in the Life - The Beatles
4. Good Vibrations - The Beach Boys
5. Papa is a Rolling Stone - The Temptations
6. Brilliant Corners - Thelonious Monk
7. Inner City Blues - Marvin Gaye
8. Bitches Brew - Miles Davis
9. Gimme Shelter - Rolling Stones
10. The Payback - James Brown
11. Moonlight in Vermont - Captain Beefheart
12. Get It On - T-Rex
13. Family Affair - Sly and The Family Stone
14. Moanin’ - Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers
15. Gold Dust Woman - Fleetwood Mac (a bit of a curve ball!)

Including the word "compositions" veered this in a more ambitious direction; if it had been just "songs," I probably wouldn't have included sections from jazz suites and the side-long "Bitches Brew." One song per artist.

Where's something from Black Saint and the Sinner Lady? 😄
