Comment:

Named after a Shaggs song and first assembled in June, 1999 in celebration of the birth of Jeffrey to Bill & Siobhan (hence the Jethro Tull). The baby as song subject is recontextualised a bit (the Crystals) and songs about parenting reveal a complicated side (Pretenders). Totally inappropriate excursions are taken towards proto-Beck (Keith Sykes, Association) and the new rawk (Turbonegro, Black Halos) and a glass is raised for the recently long lost (Talking Heads, Danielle Dax). 110 minutes. Cover by Laura. Sent along with its prototype Thought Balloons...on second thought.

Very cool! Sometimes it takes awhile to discover a mix. Found this one after a search for the Hollies' "After the Fox"
