Comment:

This is my last mix of this University term. I believe that I have officially milked my CD collection here dry and will start afresh soon with my collection back home. This Double CD (15 tracks each) set reflects my time at Uni this term with certain songs and albums remaining a constant and some raising their heads in times of crisis and of laughter. Sadly for you guys, Prefab Sprout have another song ripped off their masterpiece Jordan: The Comeback. The Webb Brothers also return with The Triffids, Sloan, Ween, Clem Snide and Joe Jackson (among others). However, I feel this helps chart my personal changes from breaking up with my longtime girlfriend on the first day to my happiness with my new partner. I thank Stuart Maconie every day for introducing me to 80s Aussie nobodies and I discovered the healing powers of Otis. Yet another mix with Mr Kweller and the Clem Snide boys but I think it's a bit different and hope you guys dig it. Wow.. my first rambling description. PS The New Bob Dylan (Wainwright and Petty) are wonderful.

Whoa - it tis mildly freaky the same Sloan track... Ah, college days always discovering new tunes - I loved those days! This looks like a really good mix, good job!
