It feels strange to be making an optimistic political mix -- & I do know all the arguments for cynicism, believe me -- but for us here in the States, this might just be our only chance in this …

Before the Twist , there was the MAMBO , a dance craze that swept the nation back in the day when dance crazes swept the nation. In the hope of re-launching that same dance craze again this summer, …

What's the strangest, most foreign place you've ever been? If you're French, maybe Guatemala; if you're American, probably Canada. But have you ever been to . . . 1928??!! Okay, some of these things …

Lots of mixes are party mixes, which often = dance mix, & why not, but this one is more for the build-up, the pre-party keying up to a crescendo of anticipation, yes, we're on our way & we're gonna …

If only I had this mix to do over again! If only I knew then what I know new now . . . I probably should have used the Jefferon Airplane original on track 23 instead of the Rickie Lee Jones cover. And …

Comment:
It seems quaint now, but back in the 20th century songwriters expended a lot of ingenuity in engineering double-entendre lyrics that sounded suggestive but could be technically proven innocent;(i.e. "I Didn't Like It the First Time" is *really* about spinach, & "Father Had a Big One" is *really* about his mustache, etc. ) Now it all seems touchingly innocent.
Feedback:
Your mixes are always so .... artful ....
Ah, the risque rhythms of yesterday.
I've been looking for the music and lyrics to Please Don't Bang On The Piano for almost 25 years! How can I get a copy of this?
I am looking for lyrics to Cliff Ferre's "Ain't It a Beauty" but would also be interested in this whole mix. How do I do that?
My god, this is glorious. I want it so bad I could scream. Are you up for trading, at all?
This is so creative and funny. I bet the songs are great too...

Touchingly innocent, yes, but far more entertaining than most of the bands these days that just use the most blunt terms possible and leave nothing to the imagination. . .
How can I get a copy of this mix? Thanks,
