Ok, my mix has been completed for some time I just have not done the (hard and expensive part) printing and putting together the covers, inserts, songlists, burning CDs, printing and applying CD labels. I should have it ready to ship by this weekend and will probably get them out Monday. ETA should be end of next week!

Edit: Almost done just waiting on color print cartridge (ran out). Will have them completed this weekend and shipped out one week from today. Be on the lookout for them at the end of next week. Sorry for delay.

Ok, my turn. I listened to it at work last week. All week in the car. 'Cept i had Friday off, so 4 days. First day i spun it 3 times. Didn't do anything for me. {#Eyes}

I was flabbergasted. A lot of the songs are new to me, but still. I love music enough that it should have done something to me. Anything! But i was flat. Ok, the next day i started with a Poi Dog Pondering CD that i liked a lot on the week-end when i listened to it. Well, in the car it didn't sound that great. So after a couple of spins, i put your Mix CD back in. {#Eek}

Did i even lsiten to it the day before? Whoa! It was rocking my socks off! Good job!

When i first heard Molly....

Molly M-M-M-Molly
Such a curious name
I say it again and again
And it still sounds just the same
Molly M-M-M-Molly

I thought i would burn a copy and give it to this little girl my daughter babysits occasionally. Her name is Molly. I thought she would get a kick out of that.

Then i listened some more....

Turns my lovelight on
Every night we been talking on the phone
Til just about dawn
On a drive down I-95
With Molly's snow-white hand in mine,
Chemical factories and halogen lights
And shivers down my spine
Can I be thinking thoughts of love?
Why does this always take me by surprise?
I must confess her sweet caress
Hit me like Cupid's arrow right between the
eyes
Molly M-M-M-Molly, make it better now,
Molly M-M-M-Molly, make it alright

{#Think}

Then again...maybe not! {#Lol}

Oh, and i just had to sing along out loud to Carmelita...

Carmelita hold me tighter
I think I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on bacon
On the outskirts of town

{#Lol}

Molly was my favorite tune in the mix, always up the volume for that one. Glad it finally took to your liking.

Liked this a lot more than I expected too. Some nice surprises in it, new songs to me. Especially liked the Aimee Mann and Jill Sobule. Well done! {#Cheers}

I was kicking around a bunch of different names for the mix and just settled on Girls, Girls, Girls as all the songs had just a girls name for the title...I think I was inspired by the marque I pass by on 8th Avenue porn shops on the way to a project I'm working on as well {#Hearteyes}

I must admit that I have thought about doing a theme like this for a couple of years. And I will admit that the thought of Jamie's Goin Bad into Janie's Got A Gun had crossed my mind more than a couple of times.

Wake Up Little Suzie ... who knows it could still happen. This is what makes doing this stuff so much fun.

OK. I only like a couple of Crue songs. Great White had some real talent, though. They play some straightforward rock'nroll. Robert Plant said Jack Russell "sounds more like me than I do"
But, I think one begs the question when the mix is entitled Girls, Girls, Girls. I mean, it wasn't Complicated Girls With Issues, or Unrequited Forlorn Love...etc... (God, what ass I am!) {#Dance}

Got back from NW Folklife last night and there was my disc! I'll give it a spin today.

The Coldmiser Sophomore effort is going out in the mail this Saturday...Just in time for the Memorial Day Weekend (or for Fuzzy the Victoria Day Holiday)_

Sorry, all, for chiming in so late. I've received ColdMiser's latest effort, but it's sitting on my desk and I haven't had the chance to give it my undivided attention. I'm trying not to look at the rest of this forum and see the track list, since you all know I like to be surprised.

Things have been real busy for me, but after the month of June I should get some relaxing time to catch up on things. And, sadly, I don't visit RP too often these days, but do listen in.

I love early Van Halen; first 4 albums particularly the first 2 (no Hagar, refuse to acknowledge that incarnation). Warrant is pretty good, dude can't abide by the Crue. {#No}

Glad to hear you guys are Crenshaw fans. I recently saw him in a local roadhouse and he was outstanding. He also has a radio gig on our local listener supported station WFUV called "The Bottomless Pit" where he brings in stuff from his own music collection every Saturday night. Very entertaining.

And the LAST thing you will get on a Coldmiser mix is VH or Motley Crue {#Headache}

My bad. For some reason the first thing that pops into my head with the song is VH. Musta been the way it was airplayed to death back in the day.

I've got a soft spot for Crenshaw, too. A really good closeout !

Just gave it a listen and as every good mixtape should, it finishes with a flourish! Especially enjoyed the Warren Zevon, was already in the mood for him, and Eileen hadn't heard that one in some time, good Elvis, love the Guinevere and have never heard that Tearaways song before, pretty cool. Really loved the Richard Thompson and Crenshaw closeout. {#Guitarist}

Overall good stuff, I was just thankful it didn't have anything to do with the Crue.

Throughout the history of human kind folks have sung odes to the women in their lives. I believe the very first recorded song was "Eve" by Adam and the Fig Leafs. So I put together an eclectic mix of songs written for particular girls. I was messing around with the order and found that it actually flowed pretty good alphabetically so I left it that way. Some of this mix is familiar I'm sure and some not so much. Just like GIRLS.

Primo mix ! When I saw the title, I was like, ok Van Halen is going to show up somewhere. I was happily disapointed

Gutsy to try and make something like this work, cuz like you said the alphabetical worked best. Lotsa tracks I never heard before and some knowing smiles mixed in along the way. Looking up at the list, I can safely say that is a bunch of artists I would never have thought about ever seeing together in a mix. Nicely done !
