Comment:
Mack the Knife from the "Three Penny Opera". I used to hear my Dad croon this often when I was young. I guess it stuck with me. :) I thought it would be interesting to assemble different stylings of this song. I tried to break up the monotony by interjecting new with old, as well as live and instrumental versions. I'm not sure I've got this categorized correctly (theme). Oh well.

Congrats on getting Mix of the Week. "Mack The Knife" is a superb song. The Bobby Darin version was the first 45 rpm record my mom ever gave me. But let's be honest, the song is murdered several times here. The Buffett-Sinatra thing is barely even musical. Putting tracks 1 and 2 on repeat would be fine with me.

Um, OK. It's kinda funny how a "mix" can only have one song on it and be called the "Mix of the Week"...

Some songs you just can't wear out!
Did you see that Will Friewald in his new book "Stardust melodies" has a whole chapter on the performance history of "Mack the Knife?" -- (I'd like to trade for this if you see anything in my stash you'd like to swap for.)
