Very clever Brian! This looks great. Must have been a pain to type it all in. Be on the lookout for the Zipps' "The Struggle For Ice-Cold Milk of Benzi the Bass Player or How to Promote Original Dutch Milk" which I'll include on an upcoming mix of songs with much shorter titles.

Interesting way of injecting a degree of randomnicity into the mix making process. Looks like it turned out pretty good. I can think of a raft of John Fahey songs that would work on here too (Dance of the Inhabitants of the Palace of King Phillip XIV of Spain, etc.).
