Comment:

Perhaps I've developed a slight fixation on mid-70's Canadian bands as of late, cos I'm madly in love with the Brazda Brothers, and Simply
Saucer's Cyborgs Revisited lp has given me a new lease on life. On an unrelated note, "Oh Sunny Day" by Magical Power Mako is perhaps the most beautiful song I've ever heard.

Awww, Mr. Swede, where's your patriotism? To each his own, as my title suggests, but you must admit Ake Sandin's story is interesting: he was so enormously unpopular in Sweden that when he died, the Swedish government had all his belongings, including his records, burnt. But my how times have changed-- recently the Swedish Council of Cultural Affairs awarded a grant to the Subliminal Sounds label to re-release his music! Was he a genius before his time???

I don't know a lot of this, but, based upon the quality of every one of your mixes that I've received (which, as you know, is a substantial percentage of your stuff there), I'm sure that this is amazing. Let me know when we can set up our next trade.

Fantastic - nice to see another mix of yours too! Love the Liquid Liquid pick, and the whole thing - although there are lots of picks I don't know - looks delectable.

Ummmm...what everybody else said. I meant to comment on this a while back, but wasn't quite sure what to say at the time. Don't know a LOT on here, but I'm always interested in mixes from the krautfreak/Stippenquop/Orchid triumvarate, as all of you folks consistently put out interesting and great mixes. (and I get the impression that y'all know each other, maybe...I'm not sure) sorry for the rambling.

I don't think you're buying your music at Sam Goody , but you are putting your Visa card to good use somewhere. Add my name to the list of cats who'd love to get there claws on this exotic mix.

This looks very interesting. I agree with you about Simply Saucer. I got Cyborgs Revisited some time ago but it didn't hit me right away. That you included "Bullet Proof Nothing" here got me to listen to it again and you're right. Excellent choices (from what I know, anyway).

Lucie - I love your mixes, and I don't think I know a single thing on this one, except the John Cale song...I'd love to trade you for this. Let me know what you'd like in return. Thanks.
