Comment:

Tape for Nik Grounds. No requests, really, so I put on some Aussie stuff that may be new to him, as well as others. Thanks to a few people for stuff on here - Alex E., for the Softies, Marty Andersen (I seem to use his mixes a lot) for the 'Mats, phallexlloyd for the Handsome Family (do they remind anyone else of Lee Hazlewood?), and to Kim for the Parasites. Kim also appears twice on here, first, with the Summer Suns, and then with Bashful, his newest outfit - the Bashful song is a tribute to Kurt from Lambchop, hence why it appears after the Lambchop pick. Title courtesy of Ida.

Great mix, Sue. Ya know, I could use that Replacements track, as well, since I can't seem to locate my copy...

Great mix. I, of course, love the 'Mats song. Nice picks as well with the Hang Ups (another Minnesota band), the Mabels, Clock Strikes Thirteen, the Apartments, Teenage Fanclub, the Summer Suns, and Golden Rough.

I wish I could pull of a mix like this. Durruti Column, Damnbuiders, AND Velocity Girl? Have you been sneaking into my CD closet?
