20. “Ve vant ze money, Lebowski.”
Play something about money or capitalism or anti-capitalism

Gang Of Four "Solid Gold" (1981 EMI, dutch pressing)
Includes several anti-capitalism tracks. This version also has the single "To Hell With Poverty", which is one of their big anti-capitalism anthems (and must be one of the main inspirations for The Rapture's "House Of Jealous Lovers").

18. “This is a very complicated case, Maude. You know, a lotta ins, a lotta outs, lotta what-have-yous.”
Play something complex musically or lyrically

This was a Secret Santa curated gift from @Memo in 2020, and it has gotten many, many spins since then.

Yussef Dayes' playing is so complex yet tasteful; sparse at the right times, busy at others, always skilled and musical. Tom Misch is no slouch either. :)

21. “You know, Dude, I myself dabbled in pacifism once. Not in Nam, of course.”
Play something peaceful

Kool & The Gang "Wild & Peaceful" (1973 De-Lite Records)
Man, this prompt could have been the end of me, since I don't really do peaceful. Even the jazz I listen to usually has some level of oomph. Ok, I could have probably stretched something to fit like I often do. But I have this. It's peaceful. Says so right there in the title.
