Succumbing to Cat and Nina

I'll confess I was trying to think of a cute name for the mixtape - you know, one that incorporated Cat Power and Nina Simone's brilliant eccentricities and Southern backgrounds. But I suppose that's something best let to someone with a better knowledge of Southern literature (and brilliant eccentricities :).

(Update: The initial mixtape had two (albeit different) versions of Werewolf, so I redid the comp and replaced the first one with Willie. And yes, my lazy ass editor apologizes for this mix-up. :)


(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction Cat Power
Central Park Blues Nina Simone

Nobody's Fault But Mine Nina Simone
You Don't Know What Love Is Nina Simone

@anonymous,
They really do sound good together, don't they?

As for Mr. Lowe, I will be posting a couple more mixtapes within the next month or so.
