Comment:

This is the second submission in the Lessons In Life series of mixes, having to do with words to live by in song. I asked several of my favorite mixing partners to join me in making mixes regarding this topic. Once again, coming from the Ann Landers crew of AotM, we bring songs that ask you to think.

My second accomplice in dispensing advice - rebel princess - comes from Sweden. This is the third mix we have made together (and the first to be posted). She is a pleasure to have as a mixing partner with great taste in music.

To win a copy of the mix, tracked in full sound and with artwork, answer this quiz question. Which musician likes to e~nd his or her live shows by twirling a glow-in-the-dark baton?

Oh, seriously, I blushed reading the liner notes. I'm too girly for my own good. It was a pleasure (as always) working with you, Looking forward too seeing if anyone can figure out the answer to the quiz ('cause I can't, and how embarassing would it be if it turns out it's one of my picks?).

I am so looking forward to listening to this! Unfortunately I don't know the answer to the quiz - if it's Paul Simon, then I must have missed that when I saw him.

This looks terrific, kids, and I look forward to hearing it since I think I'm going to get a copy for knowing that Christine Lavin has been known to close her shows with displays of her baton-twirling prowess!!! Thanks!
