Feedback:
There it is! Because you've told me a bit about her, I see the story in the tracks (heroine!! HA!) you've chosen. The songs I know work really well in this tribute. The Laurie Anderson choice is brilliant. Another winner, dude.
great story, great picks, lovely work
Dom, I appreciate your appreciation of beautiful women. I am a fan, too...!!! I like the story told in the tracklist, some I'd use, some I would not. But Gia certainly looks worthy of this tribute.
Nice mix; sad story...
the fashion machine chews up & spits out another casualty; the lifestyle that overtakes one so young, beautiful
and, I assume, rich must be mind boggling--makes one appreciate those who survive even more.
(dang, I cannot locate my vinyl copy of Foley's Night Out...what an array on that album--Rundgren, Ronson, Hunter, etc...)

Nice. This should have been the soundtrack for that movie about her.
Excellent.
ditto curtis.
great mix, and a great idea. I never heard of her, but I'm sure she would have liked this mix.
another wonderful comp dom.
i've seen that biopic on gia, but never knew what she really looked like.
