Comment:

This would be the back half of the mix I posted on Monday. Again, it's (sorta) alt-country, but looking past the major artists. Except Gram Parsons. These are mostly sad songs, so I had to put Gram's on there, because it may be the saddest song I've ever heard. The title is from the spectacular Handsome Family song. I suspect every mix I make from this point forward will take its title from a Handsome Family or Mountain Goats song. There are just so many good lines in both groups' songs.

In regards to the cover, I heard it live a few months ago and it's amazing. Good mix.
