From Living With Music: A Playlist by Daniel Handler (August 2007, NYTimes),
where Mr. Snicket’s representative indulges in selecting 21 songs and
embellishing each choice with a personal commentary:
I Could Have Danced All Night, Sun Ra. I had trouble choosing a Sun Ra song, because I own so many Sun Ra albums and they’re all delightful, but this loopy take on a Lerner and Loewe from “Sound Sun Pleasure” won out over the cough-syrup rabble funk of “Mu” from “Atlantis.” It is one of the great regrets of my life that I didn’t go with my friend Jason to see Sun Ra open for Sonic Youth in Central Park. The supernaturally sensational Mr. Ra died not too long after and I never got to see him perform, and I take no joy from that English paper that I finished on time.
