Comment:

As i only discovered this site about 5 months ago i missed the Frankenstein project craze of 2003. But it looked like a damn fine idea to me and i just couldn't resist giving it a go. Cover art - Dolores O'Riordan, or is it Frankensteins monster? I can't quite decide. The Rules:
1. A song from the last record you bought
2. A blues: not a necessarily a blues record but a song that is labelled (something) blues
3. A song that gets you going in the morning
4. A song that you think is romantic
5. One of the earliest records that you can remember listening to.
6. A song that you discovered from a film
7. A song from your favourite band / artist
8. A song from an artist band that you otherwise don't like, but like this one
9. A Lullaby.
10. A song that makes you laugh / you find funny
11. A really good cover version
12. A song that reminds you of school days
13. A song from an artist that you are embarrassed to admit you like
14. Whatever it is, it's got to be funky
15. A song for those quiet rainy days
16. A song that no matter when you hear it makes you `Feelgood'
17. A song with the word `Look' in the title
18. From a member of the `Dead rockers society'
19. Your favourite Elvis song.
20. Wildcard - Hey, just put any song you like on!

sammyg this is extraordinary! Not only have you nailed the concept but you've revealed the vast depth of your musical awareness. I am humbled and excited by the mix at the same time. Your plans to take over Art Of The Mix continue apace. Go get 'em Sam!

And you are indeed. Thanks for the many, many kind comments on my mixes.BTW, here are the rules for the Frankenstein that I did...Again, the rules. 1. Your favorite song with the name of a city in the title or text. 2. A song you've listened to repeatedly when you were depressed at some point in your life. 3. Ever bought an entire album just for one song and winded up disliking everything but that song? Gimme that song. 4. A song whose lyrics you thought you knew in the past, but about which you later learned you were incorrect. 5. Your least favorite song on one of your favorite albums of all time. 6. A song you like by someone you find physically unattractive or otherwise repellent. 7. Your favorite song that has expletives in it that's not by Liz Phair. 8. A song that sounds as if it's by someone British but isn't. 9. A song you like (possibly from your past) that took you forever to finally locate a copy of. 10. A song that reminds you of spring but doesn't mention spring at all. 11. A song that sounds to you like being happy feels. 12. Your favorite song from a non-soundtrack compilation album. 13. A song from your past that would be considered politically incorrect now (and possibly was then). 14. A song sung by an overweight person. 15. A song you actually like by an artist you otherwise hate. 16. A song by a band (whose members actually play instruments) that features three or more female members. 17. One of the earliest songs that you can remember listening to. 18. A song you've been mocked by friends for liking. 19. A really good cover version you think no one else has heard 20. A song that has helped cheer you up (or empowered you somehow) after a breakup or otherwise difficult situation.

How could anybody be em-bare-assed about liking Steely Dan? Looks like a nice job all round, indeed.
