Apart from abt. 4 songs, I don't know any of these specifically, but a mixtape sequeing He'd send in the army, Always Crashing in the Same Car and 4ht of July can't possibly be bad. In fact, I think it must be great. Yes.

I have most of this! Not the Elvis, tho that's one of my favourites by him. What a lovely title, too. Does she know Chilton much?

i'd like to hear this - is it all downloadable?

doesn't know chilton at all i think (tho i got the mixtape title as a play on his recent album). going more older than contempo-slow-indie, or maybe just more abrasiveattitude rather than sleepy dreamy was sorta a mistake for her taste actually. turns out the track she really liked was the total outlier -- johnathan richman!
