Creator of the Mix: Rev. Syung Myung Me
Initial Notes About The Mix: This is the third in a series of mix CDs, the first two being Jeff Bridges... I Don't Need No Jeff Bridges To Put Music To My Poem! and The Opposite Of Smoke Is Egg Whites (and as an auxiliary to these, on Mondays, I choose a couple of MP3s to be posted at Phancy.com, along with notes).
Like the last one, it's a themed compilation, this time, it's all covers. Mostly cases where both the original and the cover are cool, but there's some where the cover is a complete re-working of a lousy song, or cases where I haven't even heard the original. (There are even one or two in the "whoa, that's a cover?" category.)
I hope folks enjoy these tracks!
