Originally titled 'Homographic Rock', this mix initially looks like a run of the mill outing, but none of the bands you see here are who you probably think they are. A mix of 60s & 70s acts so little known that in most cases their more succesful namesakes probably don't even know they exist. Most of these originals fall in either the Garage, Psych, Girl Group or Folk category...

NB - Quality control on this mix is a little looser than normal. A quarter of the tracks are vinyl rips, some of them very apparently. And while there are some belters on here, a few are at best, average, for example the Oasis track, the best off of a poor album, definitely. Well, maybe..

Still, there's enough here to make you smile, not least the Sonia track and the Nirvana opener. Not a whinge or snarl in sight there.
