Comment:
This was devised by my flatmate and I - we were thinking about how the North West of England has produced some of the best music since the 60s. It's in chronological order so that it becomes a musical mini-odyssey, showing how the region has produced great examples of many styles such as Madchester and Britpop. Oh, and it honours my brother's rule that the perfect CD has 18 songs, which is why a couple of artists had to be taken off.Feedback:
nicely crafted, lots of classic tunes, obviously. I have a weakness for Joy Division and Starsailor on here... About that 18 tracks rule, my tapes seem to work better with 9 tracks on each side, so I agree.
It makes me proud to be a north westerner!! I sat next to Badly Drawn Boy in the pub last week. He'd be made up to be in such company!
Very cool. Though I'd gladly break the Rule of 18 if it meant adding tracks from, say, the Fall and the Buzzcocks. (Personally, I've always gone with the "every second I can cram onto a blank cdr" approach to mixes.)
