Makes me think of blue and warm summer evenings in the west country... fantastic. I'd love to hear Cash doing 'Heart of Gold' especially.

Goodness! Where did you get the Escovedo song!?! (I can see it in the parentheses, it was more of a Wow! than a question, so I ain't that dumb.) I should hunt down that album. Cool picks!

Great poop here! Jonathan Richman makes that song sound more like a Richman song than a Kinks song. And I love the Cornershop pick too.

Speaking of good flow . . . I like the interplay between tracks here, a certain amount of regret & a certain amount of getting over it -
