Comment:

This mix started off being compiled for something to listen to while in the car, but I'm probably going to use it to trade with someone. I think it holds together quite nicely. Title from "Blonde in the Bleachers", which is originally by Joni Mitchell. Longest title ever? Maybe.

Lovely, just lovely. I especially like the Swell Maps into P-Furs. I'm sure whomever you're trading with will be quite pleased.

I was just working that Joni Mitchell cover into a concept mix concerning the urban legend surrounding Rod Stewart, some roadies and an emergency stomach pump...to Soulseek I go.

Nice...and I'd politely disagree with Ms. Mitchell...(depending on what it is one's chasing), I think one must give up/trade-off a piece of their soul to enter the chase (for position & title & "respect" in one's community and the corner office and a wad of cash, and...).

Ah, different chase. Your sentiment might be the same, but the song's about a rock'n'roller who's got wandering in his soul. He's chasing women, not fortune.

Wonderful mix, btw.
