Comment:

If only I had this mix to do over again! If only I knew then what I know new now . . .
I probably should have used the Jefferon Airplane original on track 23 instead of the Rickie Lee Jones cover.
And the Barracudas song is really about nostalgia more than regret, as such, so that was probably a mistake. And
Dylan's "My Back Pages" would be a better choice than the Everly Brothers cut, wouldn't it?
Oh, & how could I have even started this theme without a recording of Dan Hicks' "If I Had It to Do All Over Again, I'd Do It All Over You"?
Regrets, I've had a few . .

When your regrets take the place of your dreams, then it's time to worry. I couldn't have dreamed of a better mix concept.

All your mixes look great, but is their a d/l link, or do you prefer to trade?

closing this with the greatest pop song in the history of recorded sound would make this fantastic even if it weren't filled with top tunes, which it is (from what i see & know here) - so it can only make it that much better - good stuff

Nice one. Love the Peter Case opener... the Greg Brown, John Prine, ISB, etc, etc. and of course that closer.

Looks really good. This is the second time that you include Danny Barnes in your recent mixes; I must check out what that guy has been up to recently. There's always room for more banjo music in my life.

I was wondering why I liked this mix so much and then I looked at the mixer name. This one gives me no regrets!
