Comment:

For Jen, more or less, due to the romantic nature of some of it. For the most part, however, this is a fun mix embracing some of the more extreme ends of my taste (Frankie and Minnie in particular). And, as I've said before, trust me--it all flows more convincingly than it looks. Lastly, if anyone hasn't yet purchased Allen Toussaint's "Complete Warner Recordings" on Rhinohandmade, he/she should do so immediately.

Yeah, this is pretty great. I love the Carr and Stones, and that 10-12 stretch looks marvelous.

FGTH? I would never have pegged you as a Frankie fan in a billion years.

Liking that single and a couple of album tracks hardly qualifies me as a "fan", Vinz...

inspired! that 9-13 section is grabbing my attention especially, although i know that i'm going to be smiling all day because of your "more than this" into "mellow yellow" transition. fun!
