Comment:

So, I finally stepped up to the plate and delivered a 20 favourites mix and it was the task that everyone has thus far described it to be. A list of 80 whittled down to 20 with some dear casualties along the way. I decided to play on my brother's idea of chronology, but rather than when they were released (80% released before I was born, by the way) I went on when I first fell in love with the song. Enjoy

A few surprises (Common People), a few gimmes (Try a Little Tenderness), and a few odd omissions (no Cash?). But on the whole a very solid twenty, many of which are among my favorites (seven artists in common with my 20). The cover image is a classic and this mix is a keeper. Well done buddy. Cheers, Famous.

Great mix! Looks like we share the same favorite REM and Beatles songs - small world, eh?

I saw it all coming. Especially 5,6, 8,9, 11, 16, 17. You are too predicatable, sometimes, in your earth-shatteringly good taste.
