Comment:
This mix was a bit challenging 'cause I figured that the recipient, a co-worker of my mom's, wouldn't take kindly to too many punk or techno covers. Lots of sixties stuff here, though.Feedback:
The Husker Du track is one of my all-time fave covers (right up there with their cover of the Mary Tyler Moore Show theme).
That Emmylou Harris track is soooo good.
My favorite is the Man in Black
Love 1,4,11 and 16. I'd love to hear that cover of Money.
i love jimi's take on the beatles, kurt's take on bowie, ylt's take on the beach boys, and richard cheese's take on pretty much anything.
that opener is one of the greatest covers of all time and a fantastic way to open the new year !
