Comment:

New Year's Eve, and the sleepy English town of London is going about its own sweet and funky business. But darkness is about to descend... With its mix of finger-poppin' soul, hard-rockin' psychedelia, butt-thumpin' hiphop, twinkly romance and bare-knuckle, blood-drenched fighting, this musical by The Legend Of Bear is suitable for any high school with a large gymnasium and attractive lead duo. It's sure to please kids and parents alike and bring the house down!

yup side 2 has my vote - i am worried bear that you are adopting an american vernacular or creating mixes for the us market. 'High School?' 'large gymnasium' and my dear fellow 'London Town.' Our american friends might dominate the site but let's not surrender all that we hold sacred. Before you know it you'll be dunkin' doughnuts, munchin' cookies and celebratin' thanks givin'. I salute the Jarre & Rozsa inclusions.

Stuff the "vernacular", this mix has Arthur Conley's "Funky Street" on it -- so that's me satisfied. Dom may have a point though, aren't you supposed to "stone the crows, guvnor" and "luvaduck". Well? Aren't you?

Oooooh, wish this had been the soundtrack to my New Year! (I think we got Paolo Nutini doing Auld Lang Syne - hmmmmmm). Love so much on this - the SFA, Pipettes, Mercury Rev, and what an awesome ending. Well done.

Great New Year fun - wish I'd been at the party. Oh wait - I was, trying to watch the Eye fireworks whilst standing behind a large boat slash pub. I'd rather have been at home listening to this!

Funny comment by Dom -- actually I was thinking the same the thing as I read your liner notes... I had the impression you're english. Love the Martha & the Vendellas and Mercury Rev choices here.
