A few years back, D*I*R*T*Y sound system used to put up RealAudio streams of some great DJ sets, including this one:

Air - Western Songs (Paris, May 2003)

I think it was recorded just after Air collaborated with Alessandro Baricco, an Italian author, on City Reading (Tre Storie Western). It’s a great set — laid back country, mostly, with some gems and a few tongue-in-cheek choices in the mix. I transcoded it to MP3, which is what you can download above. This guy took the trouble of finding the track listing; here it is:

• Air and Baricco - Bird
• Lee Hazlewood - My Autumn’s Done Come
• Gram Parsons - Brass Buttons
• Elton John - Captain Fantastic and The Brown Dirt Cowboy
• Bob Dylan - Final Theme (on ‘Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid’)
• Dolly Parton - Jolene
• Harry Nilsson - Everybody’s Talkin’
• Air - Wonder Milky Bitch
• Glen Campbell - Wichita Lineman
• Sebastien Tellier - Fantino
• Brigitte Fontaine - Eternelle
• Bob Dylan - As I Went Out One Morning
• Johnny Cash - Desperado
• Deliverance soundtrack - Dueling Banjos
• Eagles - I Wish You Peace

Enjoy!
