Mike Bennett:
CD-R of the Month:
June,
2005

I finished this mix off with an Outrageous Cherry/The Fall combo. A few years ago, I was introduced to Matthew Smith, frontman for Outrageous Cherry. He, kiddingly, I presume, asked me if I was Mike Bennett from The Fall. If only... Please send your track listings to me at mike_bennett@fufkin.com
