Comment:
I was hoping I wouldn't have to make another one of these for a while, but Steve has been back in the hospital twice in the past two weeks, once for a double-infection and now for a bad reaction to his medicine. His diastolic pressure dropped to 40 yesterday at 3 am, so I am going to see him at Barnes after work today.And I know this is full of mostly usual suspects, but that is the Wad's bag. My favorite track is the last one, since it reminds me that Steve always introduces me as the "guy I used to live with in Mexico," and I add "but now we're just friends."
Please keep him in your prayers, no matter your creed or lack thereof.
Feedback:
Ain't nothing wrong with these usual suspects, that's for sure. This whole thing looks rocks-solid but 14-19 is probably my favorite stretch. Will be keeping Steve in my thoughts.
Good stuff in this one! I dig the Zombies and Charlie Parker especially.My best wishes to Steve.
Looks great as always, and Ratchet's not wrong about the 14-19 stretch. And I know all about double infections and bad reactions to medicines (as well as multiple hospital trips) so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Steve.
hold my thumbs for your friend, lovely music too
All my best to Steve. And your mix.
Best of luck guys.
Send my regards to Steve if you will, Derek. This is some tonic though, Great mix. Choice picks for me 1,3,4 & 14 and the last 3. Those Richman & Furnaces tks have been featured on Sammy mixes recently so props for them also..
Fantastic.
the heart in these never fails to touch me, derek - love so much of this, my thoughts are with the two of you
I wish the best for Steve and thoroughly like the look of this mix.
Wishing you and your friend Steve all the best.
Especially love the Zevon covers. All my best thoughts and positive karma to the Wad.
My best wishes to Steve; this mix ought to be exactly what's required.
Best to both you guys during these trying times. Cool mix too.
don't know how i missed this one. music helps. this one would help me with the ian, steve earle, and i really like "I'll Never Get Out Of This World Alive" peace.
Nice mix for your friend. I hope he gets better.
Another wonderful tribute to your friend, I hope he pulls through with flying colors and feels like himself again soon.

I love the title track (the Stones covering Robert Johnson, if I remember correctly), and your picks from Mott, Bowie, and Ian Hunter. And I really must say that Liar is just one of my all-time favorite classic Queen tracks ever!!
By the way, what session is Bob Dylan's Mutineer from?

Beyond the obvious sentiments, I really like the flow of this mix. Nicely done.
