A Ryan Adams/Whiskeytown Mixtape
I was asked by mr devonmalcolm to make him a ryan adams mixtape yesterday. The instructions were anything after Heartbreaker. I ignore Rock and Roll as its rubbish. This is what I came up with (its actually on a cassette!). I threw in some good ole whiskeytown as well:
Side A
Strawberry Wine
Sweet Illusions
Answering Bell
La cieniga just smiled
Hard way to fall
Tomorrow
Houses on the hill
Avalanche
Don't wanna know why
My hometown
Side B:
Faithless street
magnolia mountain
Elizabeth, you were born to play that part
English Girls approximately
The Rescue Blues
The hardest part
my heart is broken
mining town
Rocket Man (Live)
Come pick me up (live)
Opinions? I have already made it so I can't alter it. What would you put on yours?
you missed off My Winding Wheel
to include a live elton john cover?
also
no Jacksonville Skyline?
get out.
also
no Please Do Not Let Me Go.
looks pretty good otherwise. i'd actually really struggle with something like this...
It is really hard to do
I could easily have done a second tape.
and only pretty good?!
after heartbreaker gunners!
AFTER HEARTBREAKER!
yet
you put Come Pick Me Up on there?
It was a live version
which is really good. I'm sort of contradicting myself here.
top marks
for including two tracks from 29 though.
29 = seriously underrated
I look forward to it!
Rock & Roll
is great in places. Especially so Alive.
Not heard 29 yet but Love is hell part 1 is my favourite though sometimes it changes to Cold Roses.
Everything is good though.
So Alive is good
but one song does not make an album.
Actually, I see monsters is a cracker as well.
Rock & Roll
has a fair few ace songs;
Wish you were here
So Alive
Anybody Wanna Take Me Home
Rock n Roll
I wouldn't say there's a single song on there I think is crap
I See Monsters is on Love Is Hell
n00b.
What the fuck am I thinking of then?
there is a song off rock and roll that was put on the love is hell cd. Ah! Anybody wanna take me home. Forget I was here.
yeah
that's on there.
although the title track on RnR was also originally recorded for Love Is Hell. RYANFACTORAMA!
could be the start of a new thread....
There
are obviously some good songs there.
But THAT is a long way from being the Ryan mixtape I would make
what would be on yours?
I am genuinely interested to see what people ould have on theirs.
Aww dude.
This is gonna take me all goddamn morning.
Ok. *Thinks*
Mine was hard
because my favourite songs change all the time.

Let It Ride
Please Do Not Let Me Go
Drank Like A River

i missed bar lights too
:(
I have Revelator!
But a lack of a pc at home meant I could not put it on.
Interesting selections. I like it. But then again, its ALL good.
there's a studio version
of Revelator as well, on Destroyer. i have it somewhere on a CDR.
If I could get a copy of that
I would be most grateful. I will give you 'me and you and everyone we know' in exchange!
can be done
even if i can't find the CDR, i think i still have the .wav files on my harddrive somewhere..

how is that a bad thing!
i once listen to him for six hours straight
as i cleaned my old flat. fun times.
I listened to him loads on sunday
and lots yesterday. I am getting the old obsession going again.
