I don't know most of these tunes, but I'm sure I'd love it. Jens Lekman, The Flaming Lips, Brian Wilson, Sufjan Stevens and the bit from LOTR all wrapped up together? It has to be brilliant. And being me, I love the title too...

Great Waits, Blind Willie, and Band of Horses, not to mention the Howard Shore score bit. Looks really cool.

This looks fantastic Jake. I wish there was a download for this. Well, if you've got a C90 and a stamp handy.....

Jesus Christ, this is fantastic. Please, please, please get a burner. Please. I'd pretty much love to listen to your entire oeuvre.

Jake, bro, this is off-the-hook... both sides. I love how you squished Anne Briggs between the Boredoms and I especially love that GYBE! and Portishead pairing.
