Comment:
#1 Gets me going in the morning. #2 Contains the word LOOK in the title. #3 Great cover version, original by John Prine. #4 Feelgood. #5 Wild card. From a 7 track CD bought at a gig. An album is on the way. #6 Favourite band/artist. #7 Quiet rainy day, a bit literal perhaps but a great version of a great song. #8 Blues. #9 Elvis. #10 An artist I don't otherwise like. #11 A record from childhood. #12 School. Double whammy here, I've taken this from a Radio Caroline 70s Flashback CD and it is preceded by a Caroline jingle. #13 Funny. #14 The last CD I bought, a promo only best of in a charity shop. #15 Band I'm embarrassed to admit liking. Rock snob get out: Only the early stuff. #16 Dead rockers society. Another double whammy, this is Hendrix at Monterey being introduced by Brian Jones. Come to think of it, Noel Redding died recently as well. #17 Funky. #18 First heard in a film. Blue Velvet. #19 Romantic. #20 Lullaby.A copy of this mix to the first person to name the film that contains the one liner the title of this mix almost quotes.
Feedback:
oh wow i love it!
Hah! I love Viv Stanshall. To the point that the day he died, I watched Magical Mystery Tour in its entirety just to see his few minutes at the end. And I got to say, that is a bad movie, unlike Sir Henry at Rawlinson End, whence the line "If I had all the money I spent on drink, I'd spend it on drink."
Not generally a huge fan of Frank mixes, but this one looks great, esp the Alabama 3 thru Lightning Hopkins stretch.

Great stuff, 16-19 is especially choice. I need to do one of these.
I ADORE Frank mixes, and haven't done one in far too long!
What a great track list. I mean, It's all great. Could this be the best "Frankenstein" mix yet? Hank Williams, The Beatles, The Bonzos and James Brown picks are beyond reproach. All in all, more tasty -- and certainly more full of great music -- than Hubert's poppadoms. Chirrup, chirrup indeed.
I always say the same thing, if I ever won the lottery, the first thing I would do from a selfish perspective is go into a record store and not come out until I was done.
Oh, excellent. I missed all this Frankenstein stuff the first time round: might have to give it a shot too.
A wonderful addition to the Frankenstein Club.
Haha, this is great.
Monster of a mix.
Nice to see Frankenstein isn't dead. Liking the Bee Gees is nothing to be embarrassed about, though I do agree that the 60s stuff is the best.
good stuff!
Totally agree with the title of your mix! Great tracks here.
A great job on the Fronkenschteen mix XYZ!
