Compiling this mix was a major ballache! Halfway through i was about to give in, but thankfully i persevered. Whilst planning a guilty pleasures mix I decided to check if anyone had used my Go Go's choice on a mix before. As it happened no one had, so my thoughts veered off into a different direction...
I decided to compile a mix consisting of songs never before used by a mixer on AOTM. 2 Rules.. 1) I had to own the track, obviously & 2) I couldn't just include any old rubbish. This mix had to be great goddamit.
So, I started trawling through my record collection. I hit many a brick wall... 60s rarities ( Moe, McDonald12), 80s/90s Indie ( p the swede ), general oddities ( Curtis_Burns). But slowly, very slowly infact, things started falling into place. The end result is one i'm very happy with. This should be lame, but it isn't in the slightest ( anyone wanting a copy, just drop me a line ). Oh, and one more thing, before anyone grumbles.. the Cilla Black track is a terrific Pop Song. It really is!
