I miss Mary Lou Lord. All that hype, all that promise, but mostly just silence since her one major label effots (aside from the amusing if raw live busking album). "His Indie World," naturally, hits way too close to home for a lot of us.

Great, great mix, Rob. Good tunes "all the way through", as our friend, Valis said. Sounds like you've got plenty of reasons to be busy these days. Whenever things slow down for you, we'll put together some trades. Just let me know. Congrats.

Rob, beautiful stuff. Lots of great songs that go great on a "crush" mix. Once again, I wish you the best of luck with Jen.

Although, this is really not a "crush" mix, per se, more a "gotten the girl, am happily in love with her mix".
