“One of the my favourite songs of all time.. I wish I wrote this.”

“Masterpiece. Definitely one of my favourite songs to dj.. People always ask me what this is.”
3. Something’s Going On – John Fred and his Playboys
“My dj friend Phil Smith put this song on a mix for me. There are too many gems like this from the sixties.”
4. Past Happened 1st – Danny and the Nightmares
“My boyfriend put this song on one morning and I died over it. Daniel Johnston is the best!!”
5. Orange County Suite – The Doors
“I hadn’t heard this song before and then I bought the remastered L.A woman CD and this was on it… Totally stunning. Perfect poetry.”

8. BIFF, BANG, POW – The Creation
” Haha – you can’t fool me…Love this one”
9. Gone – Factory
“I wish you people would let me pick more songs…Anyway,i’m sure the surf meets ‘Satisfaction’ fuzz ripoff silliness of this Terry Melcher production was a joke at the time, but it rules”

“I spin this every time I DJ, ,never fails. Never…”
