Awesome mixtape! I'm digging Josh Ritter's version of blame it on the tetons.

Wow, what a fantastic mix! Thanks a bunch!

That is a great mix. Alt-Gramma is dead on.

this is bizarre, but i feel like i have to hear these other versions of songs i've already heard to understand them better

I was going to suggest this Mojave 3 cover of Oh, Sister, which i've been loving for years. Very mellow.

Oh, sister


Then I realized i actually prefer their version of queen jane, approximately, as far as dylan covers go. Lol.

here's that too!

Enjoy :)

Hi!

Great mixtape, by the looks of it ;-)

I really really love the Willy Mason-track, but I can't seem to find a good version of it.

Does anyone have a 160kB or higher version of Willy Mason's version of the Message (live on Channel 4, or WMFU)

Kind regards,

Abe Twist

Hi,

it's been just recently that I stumbled over your fine blog -- any chance these songs will be re-uploaded some day?

Greetings and thanks in advance for any answer,

Tom
