Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em
We might as well rock out to some smoke-related tunes when we’re not outside in the haze.
Our smoky playlist includes:
This Fire – Franz Ferdinand
Smoke on the Water – Deep Purple (live)
Smoke baby – Hawksley Workman
Purple Haze – Jimi Hendrix
Dust in the Wind – Kansas
Smokin’ – Boston
Ring of Fire – Johnny Cash
Smoke gets in your eyes – The Platters
Marijuana – Reverend Horton Heat (Hey, there are a lot of “smoke” and 420 jokes flying.)
Cinder and Smoke – Iron & Wine (via hi54lofi)
B.C. is on Fire – The Pack A.D. (So obvious I didn’t think of it for hours.)
Burning down the house – Talking Heads (though I didn’t link to their version)
We didn’t start the fire – Billy Joel (Clearly we’re blaming B.C for this one.)
Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em – Fun Lovin’ Criminals
The Motor City is Burnin’ – John Lee Hooker (I linked to MC5′s version.)
I Smell Smoke – Johnny Winter
I went all bluesy at the end there.
More today:
Disco Inferno – The Trammps (Burn, baby, burn)
That made me think of The Roof is on Fire by The Bloodhound Gang (NSFW)
Paris is Burning – Ladyhawke, Peaches remix (There’s also the St. Vincent song called Paris is Burning.)
Ashes to Ashes – David Bowie
Smoke Rings – Django Reinhardt

Here’s one way to track the smoke: It’s a smoke radar.
And on the health side of things, you can always keep track of air quality through Alberta Health Services.
