Comment:

Unlike the previous Across The Pond I've sampled from as many genres (US) as possible - I've got so much of this stuff it was really difficult...the basic rule I had was you must be able to dance to it or at least finger pop..& only one track from each album - a stupid rule I agree but I like to wade through my collection. Although not included here, it was nonetheless fascinating to find Paul Revere & The Raiders kicking around in 1961. That's the beauty of these date defined mixes. Anyway, I've tried to include artists great and small - instantly recognisable tracks and one's that are obscure. Imho this makes for a more interesting listen than comps stacked with hit after hit. There are many artists I'd like to have included but room got the better of me. Enjoy.
