Comment:
Okay... They only allow you to list up to 30 songs for a CD... THIS ONE HAS 34 SONGS... Here's the rest of the list: 31) Pine Box Derby (3:08) 32) Sleepy Head (4:07) 33) Not a Care In the World (3:42) 34) Sea Hunt (edit) (3:15)... Made this for myself as a tide-me-over until the K-Records box set comes out later this year. My biggest regrets about this mix is that I didn't bookend it with the A-sides to their first & last singles (Our Secret and Angel Gone), and that I under-represented the band's "darker" material (included Hangman and Gravedigger Blues, but not the title tracks from Black Candy and You Turn Me On) but I think this is still a whole lot of top-notch Beat Happening on a single disc... Most of the songs were taken from the albums, except for That Girl (the Crashing Through b-side), Not a Care In the World (from the Sassy magazine 4-song 7-inch), and the immortal Sea Hunt (from the K-Records 45). How can anyone not heart Beat Happening? What can one say about these lo-fi/folk-punk/love-rock pioneers? They're easily one of the most influential indie rock bands of all time, and (here's the kicker) they have the catchiest tunes!
Feedback:
Hey, infrared, interested in me trading you something to get a copy of this?
Infared-What kind of music do these guys play? I've never heard of them...just wondering...hit me back...apierce03@yahoo.com...peace
good lord! a beat happening mix! and a damn fine one at that. i can't wait for the box set to come out. beat happening made some of the purest, sweetest, greatest indie rock ever. a loving tribute.
I'm one of those "Beat Happening changed my life" people. You might want to check out the Lucksmiths mix somebody just did; you might dig them, if you don't already. Similiar spirit, me thinks.
Beat Happening mix!! Cool. I am with spoon, I demand a K records retrospective to be issued some point in my life.
