Comment:

The knock-down, drag-out result of me (Rob Conroy) persuading my reticent, mix-o-phobic friend/bandmate (John Lerner) to embark upon the following project: each of us choosing each alternating track on this mix without having any idea of what the other person had chosen for the track before, with each of us utilizing one assigned half of my CD wall (actually, we flipped a coin). No CDRs were used, so each song here is on a CD that I actually purchased. It actually hangs together reasonably well, believe it or not. John cheated a bit by making "Come and Get It" his "Beatles" pick, as it's actually a solo McCartney demo never intended to be a Beatles song, yet included on Anthology 3... oh well. Title from the venerable Fellows song. Odd numbered tracks: me. Even numbered tracks: John. Suds McNeil: don't ask.

*bows* Thanks, folks. :-) And Jaime, I've been informed by John that there is absolutely *no* chance of him ever doing another mix, let alone posting one. But he thanks you for the kudos (while also acknowledging that the discs were from my record collection). ;-)

This actually sounds like it would be really interesting, esp. with input from both of you....
