Comment:
The best track #1's off of all the c.d.'s i have [cd singles and ep's don't count (with the one esception of "signals, calls, & marches" by Mission of Burma)]. These are the track 1's that just grab your attention and pull you right into the record. they also had to be the song that was the best selection (most logical) for the first track. A little window into why the right sequencing of tracks on a record is so important. an aside: the sequencing of the tracks on this mix is random and, since it is on c.d., can (read:must) be changed to make more sense.Feedback:
debaser has to be the all-time best song to start an album. well done.
