Always liked the Dylan tune, even if the title always seemed like a backhanded compliment. Fantastic choices all around, though. Would love to hear tr. 18 for myself ...

Wow -- many faves here (Huskers, XTC, Fripp, Kinks, Bowie), everything else looks great as well. Nice to see this underappreciated Kinks track getting some play these days (including Jeff Tweedy's take on the new Golden Smog album).

Some great picks here but I'll single out the Spacemen 3 as a fave.

'That' being this.
Just amazing, and any mix that kicks off with the words ' I want to spend my life with a girl like you' is a ballsy move. Love the XTC, Fripp, MF, Al Green, just too many to mention.

Just incredible. The Coltrane and Waits are standouts, but really, the whole thing is lovely. Even James Taylor somehow works.

Lovely stuff again - like the Green/Coltrane/Dylan, and the Jane's Addiction/XTC. And Janis Martin always rocks!

No complaints from me! Happy to hear that all is good in the romance department, though Marlo Thomas is a bit old for you, isn't she? ;)

Nice one Rob, you know whenever I see The Troggs on a mix I always think The Zombies should be there too, dunno why? Rickie's wrong -this is a pleasure cruise!

Love the opener, which seques wonderfully into track 2, which sounds a bit like an homage to the Troggs. Track 5 is HOT! Other faves: Kinks, Barry White, Magnetic Fields, Al Green, Jane's, RLJ, XTC, Dylan, Tom Waits, Lloyd Cole, James Taylor, Coltrane, of course the Janis Martin is "up my alley", but it's all great, really.
