Comment:

Just for a change...partly inspired by BBC's recent documentary on Hopper and my abiding love for Carver..I apologize if U.S. Mixers think I'm out of order for dabbling outside my Geography and with their iconography but the greatness of both artists crosses oceans and borders!

I think you've nailed it pretty good here Dom. The Ry Cooder through Roy Orbison is especially wonderful. I'm gonna pull out "Cathedral" over the weekend.

No matter how many times I've read it, "A Small, Good Thing" makes me catch my breath. Still an excellent mix.
