Comment:
something fun to whet your appetites as i diligently work away at the next get fresh flow disc, which is well on its way. a couple notes: i'm not quite sure if elliott smith can be considered part of the "dead rockers society," but he's dead & he played guitar & sang, which is good enough for me. also, "pink moon" is supposed to -- in my eyes, anyway -- represent the entire album, as that's the album i would choose to listen to under such circumstances; although it's not my favorite song on the album, i felt the title track would best respresent it. & yes billy joel is an extremely guilty pleasure (give me a break, i grew up on him), & yes i loathe u2 with an unbridled passion, but can't help but feel a bit affectionate towards that song.that's all.

Feedback:
An excellent looking mix. I like almost everything here.
Ditto on XYZ.I am a firm believer that one should never, under any circumstances, apologize for one's tastes. If you should wisk, a casual perusal of my mixes will show that I mean that. :)
These "Frankenstein" mixes just get better and better. This is flawless. Extra merits for that Herman's Hermits tune -- oh the memories.
It's alive!!!! Great work.
damn fine...i too loathe u2 but i loathe them less than elliot smith whom i loather more than billy joel but everything else on your mix i pretty much like, some i adore like elvis...good stuff.
Yeahhhhh another Elliott Smith non believer, Sorry Ant I needed to get that of my chest THE most overrated singer/songwriter I have ever heard. Needle in the Hay and Ballad of Big Nothing are the only songs that don't make me gag.
oh come on now...
What a collection. It's not often I disagree with Barry but on the 'Elliot Front' ( that sonds like a film ) I do. Great choices by Common, Dylan & Rufus. It's great to see 2 of the finest bands of all next to each other, tks 9 & 10. But it's the 15-20 stretch that confirms this mix as a classic. Fine stuff...
Btw has Bono found what he was looking for yet? A sense of humour. Ho ho..

I'm with you on the Elvis one. Great choices in the other categories. Can anyone submit a Frankenstein mix abiding to the rules you've posted?
Wow, fantastic mix. Great theme.
These are always so neat looking. And there is always this K-tel feel about the track listings, which is never a bad thing. Well done.
why the f do i love this mix. it think it's the elliott smith and the smiths all on one cd. and beck, and common, and otis redding
