I was actually planning on making a 2nd one (shame on me) and had Lulu's "To Sir, with Love" in the lineup as well . . . trade for mine?

[*] Heh, no apologies necessary, Mr. Burns (nice t'see where we crossover)...thanks for your Frankie comment
what everyone has said + "I always remember dancing to Shattered, et al like a
wild man on the college dance floors..." (not in plastic bags, though)

here's the question: did they ever figure out if
daddy had that shot gun ?? (said he'd never need one).

Very good. I've yet to make mine, have been through 6 Last Records, and am going to look like a real johnny-come-lately I think...

It's nice you cover seveal decades, while most of mine are 60's/70's. I'm surprised to see that anyone would give an "otherwise" pick for the Stones.And, yes, I am the proud owner of ELO's El Dorado. As I recall from my vinyl days, the first two of theirs were good as well. I have still never heard a Flaming Lips song. where to start, where to start........

This is a great mix. I also own a number of ELO's albums (both vinyl and cd). I love that you put the Duke with the Stones, ELO, Modern Jazz Quartet, Flaming Lips. Keep up the good mixes.
