Compared to the past few weeks, this is a masterpiece. A bunch of quick blasts that couldn't be more different (Gould, Rauhouse, Mekons with Kathy Acker), classic punk and post-punk, two of my faves by T Bone and JW Harding, a weirdo cover of Beck, and I haven't got to Lucinda or Charlie Parker or the Parkas, thank you, Ahab.

My pleasure, George. That is a great song. I didn't notice the Burnett track over at Tom's when I selected tracks to trade or I would have dropped Eno and taken it as my third. As I said over there, marital insomnia has struck me all week and I'm a bit ragged around the edges at this point. Old brains need plenty of rest.

Hmmmm. A strange mix, with great old and new Indie to sweet country and indielectric to the inimitible Mr. Waits to bring it back to earth. Good lists, gentlemen. I hope I spelled things right this time.
Well done, Marty! No errors that I can detect. (When I saw only three comments I feared for your health. Glad to see you've weathered through.)
Freealonzo, I would buy that Starbucks CD.
