Comment:

Third part of a sonic cocktail, the end of the flight. Side 2 ventured way off course when I discovered some integral songs skipped badly, and decided to continue with no compass... but there's finally some Hawaii in it! Some obvious stuff, but I like that in a party.

Well, I wrote a lot of gushing about this mix and more with regards to The New Leif Allstars comments. But disconnects are what they are. Yet, I wholeheartedly agree that this is something to be listened to well, and would like to add that a CD burner is not at all necessary. The software for reproducing this is available from your's truly and I will be truly happy to be the sole pitcher if that my ears will be filled with these lovely sounds as well as Dom's as a future truth. This looks delicious.

That's sweet to suggest, but the truth is that I need a new computer entirely. I can't believe this one is still running, although it's weathered 2 upgrades. I appreciate the sentiment!

A tall cool one . . . let's go!

(As to the Technological Imperative, may I suggest that Swank Queen & Dom are singlehandedly (doublehandedly?) keeping the cassette alive? I mean, wouldn't you run out right now & buy a cassette deck in order to hear this?)
(Plus, it will press your trousers!)

LOVE LOVE LOVE the Bonzos opener, along with Link Wray, Sly (doing Herbie!), Mutantes, and Coleman Hawkins tracks. I don't know much else here, but it all shore 'nuff looks innerestin'...
