About three years ago I created a mix call Land Pirate for my friend Eric. Most of the songs from that mix are here, with a few new additions. I'll try and elaborate more than I have for this one.
tracklist
| 1 | X : Crystal Ship |

My introduction to X. A land pirate's tale starts and ends with a ship. Or does it end with a ship?

| 3 | Kai Winding : Captain Kut-Cha |
|
A fun, celebratory number for the pirate's retirement. This song sees him/her leaving the grand ship and the old life behind. I loved the name of the track. This had to be added.

More pillaging. This time, while you sleep. Great cover. Claypool sneaking in my room at night scares me a lot worse than Peter Gabriel.

| 7 | Dozer : the Roof, the River, the Revolver |

Still more Dozer. Treacherous high seas (floods). The repeating of "You're dead and you know it" makes me wonder if the pirate is saying this to himself, or someone else.

Drinking involved. doi again. I picture this as "the one he left behind" singing this lovely, heartbreaking song. Slide guitar and violin may not be very pirate-y, but I love the mood this one sets.

Points for the FNM cover, that always seems to make it on my personal roadtrip mixes. Mike Patton is just too fucking good at doing that schmaltzy voice.
Beyond that, a lot of this stuff is new to me. Good descriptions and fun cover art.
Keep up the good work.
