Dr. Robbins,
Thank you for the links and content.
Keep up the good work.
You have a fan in Brooklyn!

Great list. Two fans in Crooklyn. I compiled a mix of the tunes they had. Hope all can view and play. Named Their Bated Breath… http://www.lala.com/#playlist/14829P51778
Thanks Pete. That’s really a very cool thing to do! I’m listening to your Lala playlist right now while working. I’ve never really heard all these songs continuously on a playlist like this before. This is great. Gives me another kind of perspective toward these songs. Awesome. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it.
great list, the wilco song is a nice inclusion, it is so different from their ‘regular’ stuff and a great song
Thanks Juan. Yeah — I really liked the Wilco disc too.
