Comment:

Been listening to this mix for a couple of weeks now, thinking there was something I had to change, but no. Works for subway riding and dinner parties alike (at least in my neck of the woods). I just finished one of those "death march" production projects. In my scant spare time while waiting for the proverbial other shoe to drop, I worked on this. Mostly country or alt.country with some "south american country" and a little soul thrown in. We had an intern from Serbia who fell madly, passionately in love with Brasilian music, so I sent her off with as much as I could find in my collection - hence that influence. Highlight include the Krauss-Taylor duet which is truly tearjerking and beautiful; the James Brown - that is one killer re-release no soul person should be without; the Dave Alvin cut speaks specificially of my home/growing up world of South East Los Angeles - gets to me every time ... plus it's really a duet with Greg Leisz. The Shuggie Otis provided the title, at least I think that's what he sings. And I love love love this Steve Earle records. I listened to it about five times straight ... got me thinking in a molotov mode ... metaphorically speaking.

Good to have you back mixing! And a nice one as usual. You know I like all that Brazilian! and I just saw Dave Alvin a couple of weeks ago - great live act (though I still miss the Blasters). Viva la revolution (especially here at home)

I'm afraid that until a few hours ago, I was a total ignoramus with regards to most of these guys. I've done a bit of research now and that (plus the endorsements below) make me want to know more. If you can be bothered, therefore . . . . . . .

Sally Anne, thanks. Received and it has been constant listening this week. Very educational and chilled. Love the way that you list the credits and references (I should do the same).
