Comment:

This was my first mix for Josh Benton's celebrated CD Mix of the Month Club. It was also my last, since it was March 2003 and that's where CDMOM ended. The theme here was tracks that sounded to my ears as if they owed a lot to the Beatles. YMMV.  [album art full size]

Nice selections and great cover art. You could probably do about a dozen of these, based on the Beatles huge influence on so many bands

Thanks! And true, Moe ... the hardest thing about this mix was narrowing down the possible field.

yeah, yeah, yeah!
As Mojo Nixon says about Elvis "there's a little bit of Elvis in everyone" - we are all children of the Beatles. Well represented!
