Comment:

Release date: 7 Jan 1991. I apparently never finished this mix. Oops! I must have known it, as I never punched out the tab on side B. The cover is of Matt, me, and Jodi. I think it was in Alison's backyard in summer 1990. Laina took the photo. Sorry about the lanyard. I was young and didn't know any better. Besides, it was "cool" at the time. Influence from my sister's year in the UK briefly shines through with Hothouse Flowers. I found the acoustic REM on a 'Stand' CD-3 (remember those tiny things?) at a Wherehouse in LA. I even bought a CD-ring to make it the same size as a regular CD. Bought The Replacements 'Let It Be' at the same time.
