Comment:

Again, a bit of a cath-all for what I've been listening to these days - some new stuff, some older that I've recentlly been prompted to dust off for one reason or another (I'll openly admit that the Depeche Mode and Dramarama were inspired by Rock Star: Supernova). It all comes together for some good late-summer dog-day mixy goodness, and even ends rather nicely with Gogol's nifty instrumental track.

Once again I'm guilty of taking a line that only I find amusing and turning it into a mix title. This one comes courtesy of Sacha Baron-Cohen's character in TALLADEGA NIGHTS. Hope the mix suffices, Cheers! -Famous.

Fantastic stuff - this is the kind of variety I really enjoy. We must be listening to the same stations or CDs or shows, because I was just about to make a mix with THAT Muse song AND some Slade, Flaming Lips, and Joan Jett. Extreme coincidence, seriously. Besides which, I always love to see FoW, Patti Smith, and those first 2 songs, and Hawksley Workman is becoming a favorite. All-around excellence!

Quite nice. It looks very similar to what I've been listening to recently: Muse, Joan Jett, Elvis Costello. Gogol Bordello has been an apartment favorite this summer. As always, you've done an A+ job.
