i though perhaps more rattling on about the cooking mixes 15 songs whatsit might be nice...
1. a song by an artist or group who would be catagorised under 'a'... astounding i know but i've never been much a filer the records piles vaguely making sense through constant rummaging and things played most being nearer the front so off the top of my head this went the action bob andy ruby andrews ummmmmm art ensemble of chicago (who it very nearly was what with theme de yo yo being so marvelously bananas and all) and ohhhhh aswad that first dub record heck one of the first reggae records that and police and thieves and misty in roots so aswad...
2. a song with a running time under 2min 30sec... could've been most anything and very nearly was but lovely noel was right near the front of the kitchen record player pile and they don't come much shorter neither nor shouting loud so quietly...
bonus songs...
ruby andrews - wonderful night
carla thomas - where do i go

Whoa Ally! Your 15 songs cooking mixes is "hell of a thing" quoting The Siddeleys and paraphrasing comment from Mr. Davy =]
and now reading/hearing your liner notes, its kinda an alternate version of 15 songs from you I reckon. Nice idea Ally...
as for me, allow me sharing what song that I thought of if i get to choose 15 songs following cooking mixes 15 rules:
1. A Certain Ratio – Life's A Scream
2. Scott Walker – 30 Century Man (1:29) (I was considering "On Your Own Again" (1:49), not so sure which one, I think the transition from "Lifes A Scream" would mix nicely with "30 Century Man," tho actually my heart goes to "On Your Own Again" is kinda like a fallen star, burn bright for a short time and then disappear from the big blue sky)
ah anyhow just a thought, if you dont mind i'll follow your alternate version of 15 songs cooking mixes, with tracks that I could think of via Comments... you could always delete my comments and i wont take it personally (what am i saying? Everything is 'Personal' nowadays. Personal is the new Universal! =D)
and you already post alternates for track 3 to 6. What shud I do? =D
Thanks for the bonus Ally! See you next song!
