Comment:

A companion piece to my earlier paean to the oldest profession.

Lots of good suggestions from folks. Thanks to Blasikin for "Street Walk," Bezoomy for "Little Baby Nothing," and Gerry MacDonald for "Willy the Pimp."

Title from the Louis Prima closer.

Edited to correct the name of the Marlena Shaw cut (thanks Blasikin), and to add Minnesota Strip, thoughtfully provided by Ed Pinnes.

"The violence and venality of sex" indeed! Wonderful. Love the Big Black through Louis Prima stretch especially.

Another great one. Count me in when the (presumed) deluge of requests dies down...

Santa Hathor! This one looks just as impressive. Great work. The whole name of the tune is "Street Walking Woman", off of "Who is This Bitch, Anyway?" Loving the treats by the way. Thanks again. I'll get you back, I will.

Looks like all the puns about prostitution have been used up, so I'll just leave some money on the dresser and say "nice mix."

Totally cool. I started a similar mix but never committed to it. I'm sure I wouldn't been upstaged, though. This is top-shelf, for sure.

Bull's eye again! You'd better put out an audio edition of that encyclopedia.
Come to think of it, there are a LOT of musicians, from Louis Armstrong on, who got their start playing in whorehouses - I guess that's where the hot music was at . .
