Comment:

This is a birthday mix I made for my wife, whose birthday was on January 22. Since her birthday weekend co-incideded with the Martin Luther King weekend, the Stevie Wonder opener seemed appropriate. The rest of the tracks are songs and artists that are among her favourites. The Alabama 3 selection is taped from a Mark Radcliffe BBC Radio 2 session which includes a dedication from me to my wife. A long shot text message that paid off. The cover art and title are from her favourite painting by her favourote artist, Howard Hodgkin's After Dinner.

Fine stuff here. Excellent Flaming Lips, 10cc and Talking Heads tracks. Nice little Cohen flavoured middle and I love the Hawley & Handsome Family choices..
