Comment:

((this is actually a two CD mix)) sometimes, or once upon a time, the hits were the hits for a reason. . . and sometimes, mixes get too specialized, and we forget music is, for some people, never a sit-down activity. . . but we can make it like the air we breathe-- always there, with us in our cars, when we're getting dressed in the morning, when we're cooking our lonely spaghetti at night. . . so this mix is just that, Workaday, Everyday, free of any of the obscurities and show-off-tunes we (and we know who we are) sometimes litter our mixes with: because aren't we usually only disappointed when recipient x doesn't recognize the rarities, even though that was also the point? a come down, a blanket, and a little room for good old ass shaking. . . xxo *i

Not bad at all. I made a similar mix featuring Unit 4 + 2, White Stripes, and Gabor Szabo. I was thinking about adding some Nick Drake but it looks like you beat me to it.

very cool selections... I love the Stevie Wonder-to-Devo jump. Actually, the whole first side is pretty much killer.

Nice. I need a condom to look at that tracklist.
