Comment:

Reprise of the Shock 'n' Awe mix. I thought this one was lost forever. I found it in a long forgotten corner of the closet behind my wife's collection of saved Christmas wrapping. Recorded just before the invasion of Iraq, it leans towards Three Kings in attitude. The exchange between John Wayne and Walter Brennan from Red River during Silver Turkey is pretty nice. This is being presented in 96kbps WMA (I think) and MP3 Pro stereo (I know).

As usual, filled with fun twists, surprising turns and terrific straightaways. A terrific trip, indeed.

Cool stuff. Reminds me I haven't listened to Graham Parker in a while.

How can she sleep with those planes dropping bombs all around?

well, love this a lot . . . the cover is amazingly sexy, but knowing that we cannot judge a book by it's cover . . . . (Clash and Romones - obviously), Dreadzone and Elvis (awesome) and Graham Parker (surprisingly for me) are all highlights . . . . have never been sure about Joey singing wonderful world tho (I still remember the dodgy video) . . .
