Notes

  • From the digipak: "I've picked songs that illustrate how I've learned almost everything 1 know about music just from listening to records. I've tried to tell the story behind every choice. I've also selected a few recent favourites with the suspicion that they will be songs that will stick around. I loved the rest of them long to enough know that they are not going anywhere."
