Comment:
This is another mix for Autumn, but unlike my earlier one - which celebrates the transition from Summer to Autumn and the eye-popping colors of the leaves - this is a mix for late Autumn. This is for when the leaves all cover the ground in a beagle-brown carpet, while the trees turn as gray as the sky. Even moreso, it's about the celebration of Harvest Home or Thanksgiving, when we long for a warm hearth to take the chill from our bones, and to celebrate the bounty of the harvest with those dearest to us. What can I say, I'm just a sentimental fool when it comes to this time of year.
Feedback:
A very sweet mix. Especially curious about the Al Di Meola, Bruce, EmmyLou, and Frack Black renditions.
The closing five are killers! Hearing Zevon sing that tune still chokes me up/
