Enjoyed this week's list, especially King Tubby.

I'm working on mine. In the meantime, here are four songs while waiting to board a plane (three from wintry Sweden and one from wintry England):

Like Honey, "Airport": supremely bittersweet, about the experience of being dropped off by a loved one. https://youtu.be/vcW7wIFHgHI

Hello Saferide, "25 Days" about picking someone up from the airport https://youtu.be/ZK-jLEEb_dA

Amason, "Airport." https://youtu.be/IfQKArt421U Bonus winter track: check out their cover of "California Dreaming" from the same EP.: https://youtu.be/I0nUbX-2S5w

Brian Eno, Music for Airports 1/1 (with Robert Wyatt on piano). Contrary to the image of ambient music as relaxing, this one captures the quiet anxiety of waiting for something that you're not likely to enjoy very much. https://youtu.be/LKZ3fGR2SDY
