Yeeee-hah! This rocks my world. Love the Dave Edmunds, Wanda, and Old 97's especially, but the entire thing is awesome. Let me know if you wanna trade.

I could definitely do with being a little bit more country. I like what I know, and as for the rest, I shall have to investigate.

Holy shit. This looks great to me, although I'm lukewarm on the Old 97's, to be honest...

Like Donny, I'm a little more rock 'n' roll (that's about all we have in common), but I do love the looks of this mix, which covers over 50 years of cool tunes. Great to have you back, btw. Always good to see your name in the recent release bin. Oh, and my wife has those D&M dolls -- you can see their 'lil bro Jimmy doll on my Kids Rock mix.
