liner notes
I love making mixes. And I always appreciate positive feedback from those who have listened to one. I don't include 'Good' songs on them. For me, to qualify, a track has to be wonderful...

Am I a Saint or Sinner. Where do I want to go when my number's up? I want to go where they've got the best tunes. Heaven or Hell? There's only one way to find out, FIGHT!!

So after wrongly submitting my 'Fun & Games' mix into the Mix Contest (I was unaware of the rules), I've decided to rectify it by submitting a proper Pot Pourri mix.
If you'd like to download the mix, you can find the link at my blog.

Great Pop from Sweden, Japan and France, to name but three. An early Bowie single. A band named after a Brazilian footballer. A band named after a sevnties Film. Fuzzy guitars from the Ettes. Vampires, Carrots and Roses. Pow, Pow, Ching Ching Bling from R&B’s hottest property, MIA.
Sweet smelling Pot Pourri from me, Sammy G!

Mix Titles. Pah! More than anything else these highlight to me just how little imagination I posses. For this one, I've lifted the title track of the lovely 'Frederic' song. These 22 tracks are all favourites at Chez Sammy right now..

My quest for the Perfect Pop Song is an ongoing, very rewarding experience. Have I found it? In a way, I hope I haven't. If I have, it could very well be one of these 26 delightful tunes....

Those 3 words pretty much sum this mix up. A collection of Lost Gems from the 60s, so great that they are all equal, and in most cases better than the well known tracks that troubled the top of the Hit Parade back in the day. Listen & Drool!

Insanely Catchy Pop from around the Globe. France, Brazil, Spain, Portugal etc

Oh, maybe you're right. I never really thought about it. I'm sure December boys and summer boys got it equally rough.

Just kidding, looking forward to see what you've got cooking.

Seeing you and Joe hard at work is encouraging, I may jump back in again and stop bitching about the interface.

The Level 15 Badge
So you are already at level 6! But I'm creeping up on you Sammy... I've already posted 3 mixes and my last 2 include one of my oldest plus my newest (and that last one doesn't use any songs from any of my prior mixes). Yeah, it is a bit labor intensive posting here (but I usually skip adding an album to my song adds; the site may hate me for that though). Anwya, you may want to check out the older mix; love songs from the late '50s. I'll be checking out some of your mixes here (a couple of which I believe are exlusive to this site). Glad to see I have a compadre involved in this new net experience with me.
