Comment:

This is my first mix submitted to Art of the Mix but maybe my 15th mix CD overall. I made this mix for Son Of Tape Tree 16 which is an offshoot of the Audities email list which focuses on melodic pop and powerpop derived from the likes of The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Badfinger, Big Star (aka The Four B's), so I skewed my mix a bit with that in mind. Several of the tracks have never been released on CD and are thus sourced from my own vinyl (and cleaned up nicely). Track-specific liner notes available at http://theacf.com/sott/

Very nice, good June & the Exit Wounds pick. I like your tastes (also judging from your playlist listed on your website).

Hi Brent!
Nice mix! I'm a huge Reivers fan, and I'm curious as to where that track is from.

Thanks
