<title>Drugs - side a</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>A mixtape made for Paul Schroeder.</p>

<p>"Again, I'd asked Andy to fill in some of the blanks in my musical spectrum - psychedelia being a bit ol' blank for me. I have to concede that I'm still rusty on the intricacies of it all, but this lot should [ahem] turn you onto the scene. There's a bunch of raw & powerful music here, some splendid sounds & it just goes to show what an excellent ear for music he had (as well as an astounding collection from which to pluck all this)."</p>

<p>To quote <a href="http://www.linusland.co.uk/news.html">news</a> on the <a href="http://www.linusland.co.uk/">linusland</a> (for those who don't know - Linus was the band in which he was a key member) website:<br />
<blockquote>"Andy had an amazing vinyl record collection, and we know that he would want them all to go to loving homes. We have set up an <a href="http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZmolesales">EBay store</a> to sell these treasured items to the highest bidder. This is a long-term project, as there are hundreds of records. Please keep checking to see if the album or single of your dreams is listed, or email us if there is a specific record that you've been looking for."</blockquote></p>]]></description>

<title>Modern Pop - Side Two</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>A mixtape made for Jenni Scott</p>

<p>"This is a happy tape, full of energy. Andy put the Gala and the Aqua songs on for me specially because I liked them a lot, despite/because of them being silly euro pop-rock-top 40. I love the stompingness of 'Freed From Desire', and the fact that it seems to be a song about Zen Buddhism or something -- 'freed from desire, mind and senses purified'.  And what better way to finish a happy, upbeat, poppy tape than with bis?"</p>
