Comment:

Well, folks...This is it!! No more reformattings!! This is our last trip down memory line, and it's all-new mix sets from this point on!

Well...I actually don't have all that much to say about this one, except to say that it's about as representative of my tastes as anything else I've posted! :-)

The sequence of #5-7 on Disc #2 (Motorhead, Seven-dust, Social Distortion) is something I very much deliberately and consciously conceived, the thematic connection between them having to do with three "E"'s: Ego, Enmity, and Estrangement! (If you know the lyrics to all three songs, you'll understand why I think they make for a very good grouping.)

Elsewhere, we have heavy blues from Zeppelin, prog epics from Van Der Graaf and Yes, a movie instrumental from Keith Emerson, the very last track recorded by the Manics before the disappearance of guitarist/lyricist Richey James (between The Holy Bible and Everything Must Go albums), the very last studio track recorded by the surviving members of Queen (in tribute to the late Freddie Mercury), the last single released by Joy Division, a very religious acoustic ballad from the Velvets...and more. In other words, the sorts of things you'd probably naturally expect to see side by side in one of my mixes at this point in time (ha, ha)! [*wink!*]

This is a Rock/Pop mix, NOT an Alternating DJ mix! I would make the correction myself, but for God only knows what reason...I CAN'T!! :-( (Maybe someone else could...?)

Oh, never mind! ;-) We appear to be operating within normal parameters once again!
