Comment:
My freshly-minted serving of gruesome goodness for the almighty (some would say omnipotent) spoon. I must admit, I rarely feel as challenged as I felt coming up with this mix, as spoon seems to have every musical angle covered... but DAMNIT, spoon's going to LIKE this. And no, I don't dig Charles Manson as a figure, if anyone is wondering... but the song is legitimately great and serves as an effectively creepy closer. The title comes from the Sloan song.Feedback:
All I can say is... holy shit.
man only one comment for this mix. I love it. It has a lot of stuff I have been listening to lately. A little Van Dykes Park or Martin Denny would tie in nicely with Mr. Manson
I will let Charlie sum this mix up:
"I think that it is high time that
you start looking at yourselves,
and judging the lie that you live...
You can project it back at me...
but I am only what lives inside each
and every one of you...
I am a reflection of you."
-Charles Manson

a sweet stew of tunes.... rich and thick... nice.
having just received my copy of this a few nights ago during the "brandt + rob plus rob's two friends shins fiasco" I just have to say tht this mix kind of defies words. I listened to it all the way on my drive from the grog shop to my home in lakewood and was simply amazed at how it twisted and turned like a twisty turny thing (or like Cleveland's MLK Blvd. which I happened to be driving while listening to it.)Amazing, transcendent, beauiful. Thanks rob.
I got this disc a couple days ago and played it during a car trip last nite. Absolutely stunning comp. This baby soars. Rob, you string tunes together like a beautiful diamond necklace. You've got the gift, my friend. Steveo
This is really, really great-I've been listening to this in the darkroom all day and I just love it...
apologies for not giving you credit for the manson track on my 'i start to panic and my heart starts to run' mix... meow...
No apologies necessary. I was gently joking around... :-)
Hey Rob, whenever you are ready to trade with me, I would love to have a copy of this one and "My Father Was Sister Ray". Just let me know... :-)
This looks very interesting. The 6ths song and Old Man's Back Again (which coincidentally, I was just listening to tonight!) and Blue Monk and Summer of Drugs are the only songs I know. (Well, I might know the Sloan and Super Furry Animals tunes, but I never keep up with their song titles). I wish I knew more....
This is a really good mix, especially the opening ... it goes a little too 'perimental when it gets past Captain Beefheart for me ... but I love the beginning.
