My Little Girl, this mix would Spin Me Round and make me Dance Away. Until I see a link, though, I shall Cry, Cry, Cry....

when I visited my folks two weeks ago, I stopped at the little record store in their small hippie town and found a used London sampler LP that has that Bananarama song on it. I love Bananarama. have you seen their new CD? I guess the other one got fired because she wouldn't dress like a 13-year-old. this looks confoundingly good, Orchid, and I long to hear it.

Thanks for the download. Boy, did I missed this site. I know nothing on this mix, which sometimes is a good thing. Cheers.

Great Gil Scott-Heron and Karen Dalton picks and I don't think I've heard that Mangione track in 20 years. Brilliant as usual.

so much great stuff here; love track 18, and I'm particularly fond of track #5. thank God she was off by a few years. personally, I believe the Earth will be destroyed on Valentine's Day of 2007.

My word! So much goodness. Not least the Sir Paul, Bobb Trimble, Burundi Black and Karen Dalton.

Wow! This single-handledly proves the mix as an independent art form. A clever idea, brilliantly executed with great songs!

Orchid, crate-digger extraordinaire. So many things that could shamefully remain buried from my ears constantly pop up on yer mixes. Startin' to sound like Nomates here. Thanks much for the download.

Extremely late to the party; I'm sorry. I would luv to hear this masterpiece. Would a re-post be outta the question?
