For the hell of it, but in honor of Paul McCartney's 64th birthday. Title by Mick Jagger. Thanks to lo-fi for the Coil track.

Great mix - I'm just wondering how many times we'll all be hearing When I'm Sixty-Four during news coverage, etc., of Mr. McCartney's birthday...Still a great track, though. Love the Jacques Brel inclusion! The Mission of Burma and Fall are nice picks too.

Ha. I want to see Macca and the estranged Heather getting down to Ol' Dirty in some marquee. Good job, The Conroy.

I had to listen to "When I'm 64" on Paul's 64th birthday, so I'm glad you put this together. The rest looks cool as well.

Excellent mix. Fine Stones and Fall choices. Great use of Jacques Brel.. and '64' is a nice opener too.

Dude, you are on fire with your mixed genre stuff these days. Looks fucking fantastic from top to bottom. Two highlights for me are seeing another Wu-Tang appearance and that stretch from the Stones through the end is pretty sweet, too. Oh, check yr email, buddy.

I'm glad that Coil file finally connected with you. I actually thought about how you'd *celebrate* the day when I read the news yesterday morning. Not sure if Sir Paul would approve of all this, but I sure do.

Loads of "for the hell of it" goodness stuff here. For me, White Stripes into Stone Roses and The Specials are highlights.

Happy birthday Paul. I only hope that I can still perform before thousands of adoring fans when I reach that age. Like the Translator and Manson picks. Helter skelter, baby.
