Comment:

This is a revised version of the best mix that I've ever made. (See the original, posted 7/4/01, if it matters much to you how the track listing has changed.) The revisions aren't extensive, yet they make a world of difference. Plus I lengthened the space between "Free Cocaine" and the tracks which precede and follow it. Title still from the Sloan song.

This looks fantastic Rob. The opening bit through The Magnetic Fields and Hank Williams through the Holy Modal Rounders are things of beauty.

Nice mix. You really put a lot of different styles together and pulled it off.

I absolutely love that Nightcrawlers song, in fact , I listened to it 5 times in a row just a day ago. There is a verion by Johnny Chan and the New Dynasty Six that I'm dying to hear...sung in Chinese.

I thoroughly enjoyed the original, Rob, and I'm sure the revised version will be just as impressive.

I'll chime in with everyone else on this one, Rob. This really looks like an awesome mix top to bottom. Maybe we can trade VERY soon? :-)

My original copy of this has never wandered too far away from an available CD player over the last two years. Looking forward to having the remastered edition in rotation soon.

After repeated listens to this I would go as far as to say it's as good a mix as anyone's made. Too many great tracks to mention, but I will say 6,7,13,15 & 19 were completley new to me and now they're part and parcel of my days.
