Great concept, so do you reckon that is the Tamaleweeds or the Tumbleweeds?

Tumaleweeds was obviously a mis-spelling of Tumbleweeds (hence the notation "sic" in the tracklisting). Such errors are part of the charm.

Ha! Fun... and as a graphic artist, I'm always looking for inspiration. This carefully styled and typeset track listings panel is classically bad, typo and all. I can't wait to go use parenthesis with wild abandon!

I wondered... even before I clicked on the link! I'm quite excited to hear it, but it's a little bit funny/sad that whenever I think somebody thrilling/new/ironic/interesting has discovered AotM, it most often turns out to be a new version of you. You're simply one of a wonderful kind.

incredible. this is like finding a 3-inch golden nugget sitting on the shelf at the five and dime store! a Wise Penny, indeed! side one: I love how I love that Tracy song, and that Carpenters song wasn't in my collection, but now I have you thanks to it. or wait. strike that, reverse it. track two was great, but it made me wonder what a song called "Henry Cross" by Shannon would sound like... and I haven't heard anything as lovely as that Lynn Anderson song in a long, long time. side two: Demis Roussos voice is so dreamy and Oh, Mary! that Johnny Mathis number was simply divine! I also really laved that Conway Twitty song. and Doowad: Tamaleweeds/Tumbleweeds... my guess is that the actual band name is somewhere between. in any case, let's call the whole thing off. I close this feedback with a quote from my grandmother; as she always used to say each New Year's Eve as she raised her glass to ring in the new year: "Any friend of Nana's is a friend of mine!" p.s. to the unknown mixer: thank you, and well done.
