Mike Bennett:
CD-R of the Month:
February,
2006

This month I discovered a website that generates fake Guided By Voices song titles and that's where I got the title for this one. If you have a track listing, please send it to mike_bennett@fufkin.com.

Polled Ampersands

Sugababes – It Ain't Easy
Was (Not Was) – (Return Of The Valley Of) Out Come The Freaks (Great R & B whimsy)
