Kelly offered up two more tracks for the new ethereal mix. Jackson Browne and Jennifer Warnes's Golden Slumbers.. a standard in this genre. Also the Water is Wide by James Taylor. I acquired the Golden Slumbers through Itunes. The Water is Wide became one of my last downloads for the month through E-music. Both are very appropriate and add to the mix. Thanks Kelly!
I was particularly worried that the two songs would push the overall lengh past CD pressing length. What is good about this kind of song is that they are a little shorter than others. I was able to get all 20 tracks on one CD.
Then comes the mix part.. and I am open to suggestion. Where do the new songs go in the line up. This was the fun part that Linzi and Heather and I had fun with when we assembled the 4th of July mix in 2000 off of Napster and 2004 when we made an Americana Rock album included the Jimmy Hendricks Stars Spangled Banner.
Write me a comment and tell me if there is a better order. Right now they are at the end.
Have fun.. I will send you a copy if you like it.

I'm glad you liked my suggestions. I love both of those songs. The water is wide really pushes some buttons (in a good way) for me. I have collected it, much the same way you have collected Ave Maris, but I love the James Taylor version the best. I could swear that John Denver has sung "Golden Slumbers", but couldn't find it anywhere...
i would love to hear your mix. currently I am stuck on 1234.
