Comment:

Elation, despair, frustration, optimism... For some reason each of these songs seems to encapsulate a particular emotional state for me.

Yeah...and all the Higsons appearances have been in the last three months. I only learned of them pretty recently. Suddenly the title of Robyn Hitchcock's "Listening to the Higsons" made much more sense (well, as much sense as anything by Robyn Hitchcock can make). Very nice mix -- glad to see I'm not the only one who remembers Voice of the Beehive.
