Awesome! The Shadows jamming along on CCMixter. For sheer creativity and inspiration, this definitely gets a huge thumbs up from me!!!

Cow-a-bunga, spin. AB’s recall of the Shadows says it all. clean, clean paean to bushy, bushy blond hair do’s.

Thank you PM - I think this is the very first cow-a-bunga I’ve ever been awarded. Thanks for the honor!

I’ve been surfing quite a bit lately…so your mix is perfect for me! The waves down here have been flat for the last fews days—maybe this mix will miraculously cause a big swell to arrive! I’ll be listening to this on my way to the water for sure!

Flat waves suck - hope they’ll get better soon, so you can hang 5 again! Thanks SM!

Thanks CB! Yes, that Em woman has a way of sounding nice no matter how much I mangle her track, doesn’t she?

Actually I thought of you the entire time that I worked on this remix! The backing track is there as a second upload if you or that lovely gal want to mangle something :-)

I hope it’s not really hell, but just purgatory - which is supposedly more temporary. Hang in there and I hope things will look up rather sooner than later!

p.s. Working with your tracks has given me plenty to smile about!

Yes, a very frisky and ironic treatment - and this is really good!
Even the finish is excellent with a lot of love for detail.

lol - thanks DD, yeah - it’s one of my friskier remixes. I seem to throw one of those in once in a while between more “serious” stuff. :-)

Now that’s funny :-)… Reminds me of a certain era of TV program theme song. You’re being very brave and appear to be having fun doing it, an experience I can totally relate to. Rock on old friend (and no, I’m not implying your old in the chronological sense…).

lol - yes, guilty as charged! - I tried to roll old TV themes and a little Pulp Fiction into a not entirely serious musical fun-fest. I’m less sure if it’s brave or just silly and immature, but you should have seen the silly grin on my face as I was practicing before recording it! Fortunately age and maturity don’t always have to go hand in hand. :-)

There’s a reason they call it “playing” music. Although personally it often feels like “working” on a remix …don’t think I’ll ever get over that.

permalink   spinmeister Sun, Sep 19, 2010 @ 5:51 PM
agreed - it does feel like work for me, too — but only for the stuff I plan to publish. My pure “play” never sees the brutal glare of the Internets. Too many wrong notes! :-)

Surf guitar…this is my favourite!
You have unbelievable flashes. (I mean ideas)! When the “AH” replies to harmonica….
and to “Oh” (before every “Dear Mr Williams”) It’s goooooooooooooooood!!!

Thank you so much for that generous review Z.! I don’t even what to say, except, that you have totally made my day! Thank you!
