8 thumbs up!!! Tremendous Gun Club, Roy Harper, Kevin Coyne, Kevin Ayers (that very song has been initially slated to be on my last three or four mixed-genre mixes, only to be chopped at the last minute), Pete Ham, Neil Hagerty (my absolute favorite solo song of his--see my "best of 2003" mix), Mayo Thompson, Dion and Bowie picks. Please send this & I'll send you my most recent concoction...

Peter Sarstedt?! Murray Head?!! It's a Beautiful Day?!!!That's tuff stuff, babe. But nice to see Group 1850 on a mix.

I'd have thought that any mix that opens with The Electrician would have difficulty avoiding a subsequent sense of anti-climax. You've proved me wrong with ease. A truly fabulous mix. (And a special mention for that Weekend track a long-time fave of mine that I've been meaning to include on a mix for a long time).

I *heart* this mix! NKOTB would have fit perfectly between the Gun Club and Kevin Ayers.

Lucie - How wonderful to see that you've posted 4 mixes since the last time I looked. And, as always, they're all filled with incredible selections - at least the ones I know! You are the AOTM Godess on High!
