Comment:
Tossed off on a cold snowy January night. Some guitar worship and neo-psychedelic grooves & jams. Kravitz on the cover.Feedback:
Very nice.
Very nice, indeed (that's exactly what I was going to say before seeing the Misfit's comment). I love this kind of stuff, and that Stone Roses opener is underrated and a killer.
Pretty cool, although I HATE that Lenny Kravitz song. Great Flaming Lips pick though.
Cool, especially the Supergrass
I hate Lenny Kravitz, too, to be honest with you, as well as Gomez, but so much of this looks great--the Stone Roses track that I mentioned, plus the Happy Mondays, the Scream, the Lips, the Fall, Echo, Spiritualized and Radiohead picks--that I can still embrace this one. :-)
Kravitz does that to people and I've noticed many love/hate comments when he is used on a mix. Thus, I put him on the mix cover too.
I really hate that Kravitz tune(he's music for models only) but the rest looks like a good night out with the boys
I dont know why i have to think about Ice COld HEINEKEN Bottles when i saw this Cd Cover , but its certainly a Nice Rock Mix

dig it - love seeing supergrass on a mix. as for kravitz, i can't hate him. he rips off too many good artists. sure, he makes more money than sly stone is these days, and lenny's lyrics are routinely DUMB ... still, the guy can rock. it's hard to divorce kravitz the nutball personality from kravitz the music "thief". i don't know - i think he's harmless, and i still like his first album. so there!
I'm w/Lally re:Kravitz..& I love GOMEZ' debut...& a great lookin' mix!
nice mix george! interesting debate about kravitz, thus will abstain......
Hey George! - do you by chance desire one or two of mine? I'd love to get one or two in this series? I've only heard a handful to Kravitz tracks, but the pop/hook method he's adopted works for me. Fields of Joy was great. I like Little Girl's Eyes a Lot, and the FM staple from about 2 years ago was very nice. Too many rock and roll artists these days do not have good enough ability to "phrase" the vocals to pull it off. Like Eddie Vedder - whatever he tries to sing sounds like he's reading a shopping list for the first time - how awkward. Conversely, with Kravitz who cares about the words - he can deliver the vocal sounds in a real groove. I must pick up one or two of his.
From start to finish.Wonderful.
Ahhh, this brings back pleasant memories. I will forgive your inclusion of Lenny Kravitz just because you included a track from "The Second Coming". That album will always hold a special place in my heart, as it was literally stuck in my car tape player for 9 months.... therefore I'm intimately familiar with every blissful millisecond of it.
With P and Rob on Kravitz and Dom on Gomez's first lp (dunno what happened to them after that, though). The rest is great choices. Nice Oasis-Spiritualized face-off!
I don't dislike Lenny Kravitz. How could I? He wrote a song about a cab driver, and that makes him ok in my book! Also the rest of this concoction is really first class, especially the Neil cut "In that mansion on the hill, psychedelic music fills the air, peace and love live there still.........." Music to my ears!
I didn't know what the association of Kravitz with Heineken
beer was until I just googled the two together. Heineken Festival, playing beer bottles on stage, etc. Really taking the sponsership thing over the top. I guess one more thing to hate Kravitz about. What else is there to hate? The Hollywood/Cosby connection? The Look? The "music for models" comment really cracked me up. He's a ripoff but like Sean says... he rocks.

I only have one Kravitz disc...& I'd probably adopt his persona if someone threw a few bags of cash for my trouble...
Regardless, this looks rockin', George!

Excellent mix George. And Kravitz? He had the good taste to hire Cindy Blackman as his drummer which counts for something I suppose.
Beautiful, George - seems like it flows very nicely indeed, and I like the Gomez.
