Comment:

Okay, so this time we start with the inevitable Beatles-Stones-Who-Zeppelin parlay, except backwards, go off on a Chuck Berry tangent (Happy 75th, Chuck), into some no wave that edges into Braziliana then Weill (go figure, but Lou's awesome) and wind up with just the facts, ma'am. Side two starts kinda punk-poppy, then into a bunch of couplets, great Neil Diamond cover, a little N'awlins run into a monstrous finale. More unpredictable than the usual covers collection I hope.

This is great, Eric. I'm not normally a "covers mix" guy, but you did a wonderful job.

Outstanding Eric. I'm consistantly amazed at how your mixes go from here (Beatles) to there (Mel Brooks). Listening to them, it somehow makes sense. Bonus points for nailing 2 of the 3 answers to my trivia question; Which artist was covered by The Beatles, The Stones & Dylan?

Wait a minute! There's no Beatles cover on this. Has medical science found a cure for record collector's OCD?

Scmuckler mix's are always a welcome site. The mix of known and not so known, guilty pleasures, all thrown into the blender making one swell music cocktail guaranteed to leave you not just stirred but shakin' as well.

Jeez Eric, maybe my brain needs to be studied at the medical university level. I forgot the answer to my own trivia question. The correct answer is Arthur Alexander. Beatles do "Anna", Stones do "You Better Move On" & (I've only been told) Dylan does "Sally Sue Brown" on ? Rob, Tom I need your help.

Huh. I'm going to guess that "Sally Sue Brown" would be on the "Dylan" album... but I'll get back to you, Jim.

Wiat. I'm wrong. It's DEFINITELY "Down in the Groove", Jim.

I misread the question as which song did Dylan, The Beatles and The Stones cover and you had me really perplexed. Now that I see the answer and have read the lo-fi inquiry correctly all makes sense. Must lay off the poor mans speedball (drinking Guiness followed by strong coffee).
