Comment:

blasikin (left), tornadoZ (centre) and sammyg123 (right) are the notorious Gangsters Of Love. They travel the world constantly. Wherever they go, women fall at their feet. Their long suffering wives back home know this only too well, but consider themselves lucky they are the ones they come home to (once in a while). Along the way they pick up some pretty decent tunes also. Here's 24 of the very best, covering everywhere from Whangarei to Walthamstow.
Sammy kicked this off, Alex followed, Michael chipped in number 3, back to me, and so on & so forth. Available for download either as a mix or seperate tracks as always. Take a plunge into this box of delights, you may find something you love...

Nice one ladykillers! Any mix that begins with Margo Guryan has to be good (good call Sammy!). Also like that Fox track a whole lot too. Not familiar with much else .. but wait! I can download it! Can't wait for the jumpsuit and boots look to make a comeback.

A rollicking blast, fellow Gangsters of Love. Track 24 should be Mahalia Jackson's, I believe.

My friend Jeff Lewis the anti-folk singer did a little internet investigating of the band Gangsters of Love while he was visiting this weekend- Alex, do you have their album? We are both curious about their
(our?) cover of Sympathy for the Devil? And is their album really titled "Gansters of Love" (sic)? http://www.answers.com/topic/gansters-of-love

Good golly miss molly is the only phrase I can come up with at the moment, and that's only because it's playing on the radio. Maybe I'll have something better to say after listening. Until then, PEACE OUT GANGSTAS

Much as I am thoroughly enjoying this fab collaboration, from three masters of the art of mixing and casual seduction; it's the companion volume by "The Long-suffering Wives" that has piqued my curiosity. I will endeavour to hunt down a copy. Expense sheet to follow...

a blast indeed, fellows. have to do it again, maybe get Louie or one of the other Gangsters involved. blasikin, I'm not surprised you can't recall our Sympathy For the Devil sessions. we recorded just before you went to Betty Ford and you were pretty messed up. here it is anyway; turned out pretty damn great if you ask me.

Thank you for that reminder and link, TornadoZ. It has been a long time, my friend. I am hoping your recurring endless-spiral-staircase-of-raw-meat flashbacks have been subsiding.

Barry, Jeff and I were roomates at SUNY Purchase in New York. Alumni also include Adam Green, Kimya Dawson, Regina Spector and most of Dufus. I'll try to assemble a SUNY Purchase alumni anti-folk compilation ala your recently acclaimed FENCE mix that I'm dying to hear.

Well done guys - this is great, great stuff. But I have to express similar frustration to Jenergy in not getting to the links on time! Argh. Still, I know a good mix when I see it although there are a few things on here I'm not familiar with. Like the cover too!
