Comment:

For Meredith L. Just a collection of stuff that I've been listening to a lot over the past couple of weeks. It's funny, but it seems as though an unconscious theme of "love gone bad" is moving throughout the mix. Thanks to Sean Lally for the Vertebrats and Salvation Army tunes; lo-fi for the Vince Taylor track; and James Russell for the Hawkwind and the And You Will Know Us... tracks. Title (very slightly but intentionally bastardized) from the heart-wrenching Giant Sand tune.
