Comment:

I decided it would be fun to try and make a mix that had the feel of a collection of obscure 60's tracks, without, you know, actually being a collection of obscure 60's tracks. I have to admit about half of these songs ended up being either reccomendations from other people or just things I found browsing the All Music Guide, but I kind of find it fun when that happens with a mix, since you also end up discovering more bands to check out in the future. And of course I had to throw in Spinal Tap and The Dukes Of Stratosphear, because it just seemed really fitting for a fake 60's compilation to involve fake bands. Oh, also, be sure to check the Konks song out, hearing it get airplay on a local radio station is what inspired me to put this whole thing together.

Great idea! And what better way is there to kill time than browsing AMG?

Great work, old friend. I love current music inspired by the psych and garage recordings of the 60s.
