    Cool idea Frankie – be prepared for an avalanche of mixes based on this theme. Well, I’ll be givng it a try anyway.

    We need rules to ensure that the links aren’t too ridiculous – for example Elvis’s cat’s name has the same score on a scrabble board as the newspaper read by the drummer in Grand Funk Railroad, etc.

    It made me laugh!

    A mix that may get irritating after the 90th listen but a great source of enjoyment up til then. Your best yet – you are probably the most talented vermin since Roland Rat!

    Thanks for the comments guys!

    Another one of my tinpot mixes. I must admit, like naz suggested, it was a little too ambitious really. That’s why there’s a bloody great big cheat at the 33rd song mark. 🙂

    I’m such a naughty boy.
