Comment:

Well, as you've probably guessed, this is yet another reformatting of a prior mix. And for the most part, I think this one came together pretty well.

For the longest time, however, I was somewhat less than satisfied with my decision to use Nirvana's cover of the Velvets' Here She Comes Now instead of the original. And for the longest time, I had entertained the notion of revising the lineup, re-instating the Velvets' original, but with Nirvana's Territorial Pissings preceding it. (There would have been room for both - the Velvets' original Here She Comes Now is pretty short, while Nirvana's cover goes on for almost five minutes!) But I eventually decided to put the Velvets' original and Nirvana's Territorial Pissings on a later mix, #90, and allowed this one to stand in its original form.

And in my (not so) humble opinion, the coupling of Heroes and Norwegian Wood makes for a perfect closer to the whole set!
