Comment:


I cannot tell a lie, I stole quite a bit of this from
Nest of Viper's
fabulous flaming
Pants on Fire ,
and other tracks were contributed by Sean Lally ,
jenergy,
& lo-fi jr

- & yet I have the nerve to claim this mish-mush as my own . . .

Hey, that reminds me of a true story.

It's a little-known fact that George Washington was actually born in Texas, not Virginia.
But when he was very young he chopped down a mesquite tree on the ranch, & when asked about it
he said "I cannot tell a lie, I chopped it down with my little hatchet." And his father said,
"Well, that tears it, now we're going to have to move to Virginia."
"oh, why?" asked young George, "because of the disgrace?"
"No," his dad said," but if you can't tell a lie, boy, you ain't never gonna make it in Texas!"

That joke is pretty hilarious. And this is a fine mix--one of my favorrites of your theme ensembles. No "Lies" by the Knickerbockers, though?

This is great, though the cover will give me nightmares. May I humbly suggest Robbie Fulks' wonderful "I Told Her Lies" if you do a volume two.

It's easy to compile a mix on a theme. Not so easy to fill it top to tail with corkers. Which you have done, erm, with apparent ease. Nice work!

Excellent! Somewhere in my mountain of uncatalogued cassettes, is one I did on the same topic.The only picks in common were the Castaways & Knickerbockers. I'll have to see if I can excavate it.
Great cover btw
