    Fish or Fowl

    Fish or fowl: 43 tracks of birds, sharks, and whatever else is biting. Birdhouse in Your Soul and Rock Lobster up front, a five-song shark run from Split Enz to Diane Coffee, Fisherman's Blues and Fishing Blues for the anglers, Surfin' Bird twice (the Trashmen, then Big Bird), Free Bird, and Morris Day's The Bird to close. Appendix: Twin Peaks, WKRP, Enormous Wings, and four beers.

    Big House with a Yard

    42 tracks from behind bars. Folsom Prison, Jailhouse Rock, cell blocks, chain gangs, and great escapes -- doing hard time from Was (Not Was) until They Might Be Giants finally get Out of Jail.

    Weird Science

    41 tracks for the lab coat crowd. Robots, rockets, chemistry, lobotomies, and DNA -- from Carl Sagan's glorious dawn through a live 1968 Dark Star, ending with Thomas Dolby blinded by science itself.

    NY State of Mind

    42 tracks that walk every block of the five boroughs — from the Bronx to Brooklyn, Harlem to the Lower East Side, with TV theme medleys and subway songs in between. If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.

    Bible Stories for Adults

    Saints, sinners, and everything in between. 34 tracks exploring rock's long, complicated relationship with religion -- from drop-kicking Jesus to chillin' on the beach with him. Salvation not guaranteed, but a good time is.
