Comment:

Well, you all must have been good boys and girls this Easter...because you're all getting a double shot today! That's right, frien-ds and neighbors, today you're getting two Pazuzu Pizza Pies for the price of one! (And this one just came hot off the presses - or rather out of the oven, to maintain the metaphor - this morning!)I'd just like to give a note of clarification regarding Disc #2, Track #12: The name of Wayne County's backup band has three words, not two. And anyway, this is 1976 we're talking about here. So no wiseass boy band jokes...if you please! [*wink*]Well...this time around we've got Dylan delivering a plea for justice on behalf of former middleweight champ Rubin Carter, falsely accused and convicted of triple murder...Finnish glam-rockers Hanoi Rocks' very first single release...vintage '77 punk from the Sex Pistols, Dead Boys and Television...classic heavyweight proto-grunge from Sabbath and Hen-drix...a ten-der plea from Peter Hammill and Van Der Graaf, telling a broken-hearted young girl not to join a nun's convent...a pair of punk-rock trannies (one real, one fictitious)...a collaboration between BOC and sci-fi/fantasy author Michael Moorcock, about an evil sword whose master is its slave...a very dark love song from Nirvana's Kurt Cobain...Ice-T and his metal outfit Body Count not-so-politely serving notice to those less honorable members of that organization sworn to protect and serve...and a rollicking, glorious sequence of old-school rocking oldies covers (Montrose covering Eddie Cochran, the late Mick Ronson covering Little Rich-ard and the Fab Four giving a righteously smoking treatment of an Isley Brothers classic)!For the closing sequence of Disc #2, first I chose three classic rock anthems (from R.E.M. - more alt/neo-classic, I suppose...Boston - lead singer Brad Delp R.I.P....and the legen-dary single collaboration between '70s glam icons Queen and David Bowie - y'know, the one with the world's most famously ripped-off bassline!). I suppose anyone else would have chosen to en-d things there, but instead I chose to conclude on a more whimsical note. For the last track, I chose Mickey Dolenz's good-natured - albeit irreverent - homage to the Fab Four, from the Monkees' Headquarters in '67!

No, not quite (see comment on previous mix). Having developed an unreasonable loathing of the Doors I must admit you have picked the one track I tolerate (along with Touch Me). I own about 5 of their LP's and have not played them since about 1987. Great closing track on side 2.

NOTICE: I've decided to change the title! As far as I'm concerned, I picked the right song (If 6 Was 9 by Hendrix), but the wrong line ("Fall Mountains, Just Don't Fall On Me"). I really think my new title is much more suited to the overall mix!
