Comment:

The title of this mix CD comes from the B-52's song 'Summer of Love' (track 4). I feel there's definitely an exotic, summer vibe flowing throughout, but there's also some undercurrents of depression as well. By the time we reach the last two tracks, all is forgotten as we are transported to another place entirely (not of this earth). I am very happy with this mix CD :-)

From ABBA to Eno to Pet Shop Boys - talk about running the gamut. I love mixes that shift tones, or otherwise include more than just one overriding emotion. They're more memorable this way. Very well done, and anyway, fantastic Lightning Seeds choice!
