10 | redgogreen January 16th, 2013 at 3:49 pm@maria – I pull from my own archives, so about 90% of this mix is comprised of tracks I have written about over the past year. Just search the archives for the original posts/mp3s.
11 | Satisfied '75 January 16th, 2013 at 4:13 pmI’m always impressed by your curatorial skill and ability to make a tight, tight setlist. I put this on and I’m on the beach in the distant past, like a thousand years ago in the Time of our Hippie Forefathers. The cool Los Angeles hippies, the crazy ones, the ones who didn’t turn into programmers but continued to be groovy into an LA eternity. I see a red door, and I want to paint it all explody mescaline-derived colors
12 | Robert St James January 18th, 2013 at 6:40 pmYeah Yeah is (probably) my favorite instrumental ever. Given how perfect the sound of that session fits the vibe of the song, I’ve often wished they’d recorded an extended version of it! Been listening to it for years, and it’s great to hear it in another context.
