Comment:

This is what was left of the MP3 playlist (http://www.artofthemix.org/FindAMix/Getcontents.asp?strMixId=81854) after I compiled a CD for my mum. Same songs, some changes in the tracklisting (but I am still particularly proud of the transition of the last 3 songs, though it's a bit obvious!).

Northern Sky has to be one of the best songs ever written, I think I could happily listen to it every day for the rest of my time on the planet! Mike Scott at his very best too here.
