I got up extra early for today's Mystery Train, because I had to pick up my very special guest. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you John Hubbell, original host of the Memphis Mystery Train. Much like Jay-Z, Hubbell came out of retirement for the day in order to co-host the show with me. He left it (and Memphis) in April when he moved to Hong Kong to take a job with the New York Times. Needless to say, the show's format has changed a little bit since then. Here's what I played today, with the local tracks marked with an asterisk: Pavement - Stereo The Egyptians - Party Stomp Billy Bragg - Short Answer (which has the greatest first line ever) *Reigning Sound - She's Bored With You Detroit Cobras - Breakaway Young Fresh Fellows - Taco Wagon The Clash - Janie Jones *Barbara Pittman - Everlasting Love *Two-Way Radio - Run Away Cee-lo Green - You're So Square (Baby I Don't Care) Neutral Milk Hotel - Holland, 1945 Magnetic Fields - California Girls *Jack O. and the Tennessee Tearjerkers - 'Til the Money Runs Out New York Dolls - I'm So Fabulous Thao - When We Swam The Ramones - Glad to See You Go Screamin' Jay Hawkins - Alligator Wine The Supremes - Ain't That Good News *Harlan T.
