Lots of sad songs on this one. Good stuff to mellow the kids out in the evening. (I've got to give them a break from all the melange de bruit mixes I've been playing lately) ;-)

They're actually pretty used to that kind of stuff. My 6 year old, Maggie, will only ask me to turn it down if it gets excessively noisey. Her favorite volume of the bruit is no. 6 (lots of percussion on that one). Some of her other faves include, Coltrane (Blue Train), White Stripes(Apple Blossom), Dixie Chicks (anything),and the Simpsons soundtracks. She's a good kid.

Really sweet! "Don't Let It Bring Me Down" is one of my fave Neil songs -- I'll have to check out V.W.'s version.

Oh wow, I really love these songs. That's one of my favorite Ryan Adams tunes, and I dig the Gillian, Neil and Son Volt picks too. Mmm, and a pretty 'Mats tune as well. I love the line "there's a war raging outside, I hope my grass stays green".

Holy shite, this looks like a doowad mix. I've got to hear that Victoria Williams.
