Comment:

Side one is Long May You Rock. I tried to go for flow but also I wanted to break up the really long songs (over ten minutes) with shorter 7 minute ones. Of couse I couldn't help myself on the Neil Young. Bush-Alien is not quite 7 minutes but I love that song and it fit right in with the mix so I had to make an exception. I had a really hard time placing Phish-Union Federal and Pink Floyd-Echos so I just kinda threw them in at the end. If anyone has a better idea of where they should go or if I should just take them out all together feel free to coment, I am totaly open to suggestions. Side two is Long May You Roll and its a little more ambient and softer. It may sound strange, but I fell in love for the first time listening to Yes-Heart of the Sunrise, then about a year later I lost my virginity to that same first love while listening to Pink Floyd-Shine on you crazy diamond. I still remember that boy everytime I listen to either song so side two is a little haunted for me. As you can tell, long may you roll is a tad skimpy compared to side one so if anyone has anymore suggestions that would fit well, please tell me what you think!!
