Comment:

A belated birthday present for a friend, whose birthday was on Halloween. She's a big fan of Ennio Morricone, so I had to include at least one track by him. The Sugarcubes song seemed appropriate, and she and I used to sing "Arnold Layne" all the time, for some odd reason. I don't believe she's ever heard anything from most of these artists, but I'm sure she'll dig the Bob Dylan song, as she's a fan.
