Comment:

A tape made for Rob Conroy. Whenever I trade with a fellow AOTMer, I always go back and look at their previous mixes to get an idea of what they like and already own. Mr. Conroy has tons of music, so I'm sure he's heard some of this before, but hopefully he'll like this. Unfortunately I didn't have room for his General Public request. Oh, I almost forgot -- anyone who can tell me how the Super Furry Animals song, the Ivy song and Jay & the Americans are connected (as well as William S. Burroughs, come to think of it) wins my respect and admiration.

Okay. Here goes (for your link): the SFA song quotes liberally from Steely Dan's "Show Biz Kids"; the Ivy song is a Steely Dan cover; I'm going to guess that Becker & Fagen wrote a song or two for Jay & the Americans while doing their Brill-Building-style stuff prior to the band, or perhaps "Skunk" Baxter or some early member played on Jay records; and, lastly, the Steely Dan moniker is taken from a dildo in Burroughs' "Naked Lunch". *phew*

By the way, is that Ride song a Small Faces cover?

Wait, let me correct one of my links: both of the Dans (B & F) were *in* Jay & the Americans' backing band in the early '70s. *bows*

Congratulations Rob! You is so smart! I was going to offer the mix to anyone who got it right, but you're already getting it anyway! The SFA song directly samples the line from "Show Biz Kids" and yes, the Ride song is a Small Faces cover taken from a tribute CD to that band.

re: flush.
the single bloke song is pretty terrible. it's by a band called the Shirehorses, it was a one-off take that made it's way onto the single girl seven-inch. it's amusing though.
