Comment:

More things I had been collecting to mix. Instrumentals and vocals alternate. "Shaka Shaka" is a little dated as Mandela is out of prison, but it still a good song. Link available soon. Title lifted from Judith Owen. Feeling "Frenchy" tonight with a Canon-Fronsac. Vive le vin rouge!

there are a couple of belters here . . . . particulrly like Charlie Haden and Herbie Hancock but Toots is always worth a listen too. Great stuff. . . .

I only know a couple of songs, but on the strength of them, it looks pretty great.

Ooooooh, this looks really nice. Totally out of my comfort zone, as far as mixing goes, but I love that Herbie Hancock tune and am very curious to check out the rest. That's what it's all about round here, isn't it? :-)

Who's feeling Frenchy tonight? Vive vin rouge is my mantra, 'specially if it's a nice St. Emilion. I'll throw you a line!

Saw Judith Owen with Richard Thompson recently during the 1000 years of pop music tour. I'll be checking back for that link. It looks really good.
