It’s been a while.  No good reason except I ran out of imagination, haha.  But to the rescue came the reliable duo, Shawn and Boss Logan.  They are the most prolific contributors to the series and I am grateful.  They’ve expanded my horizons greatly.  Whatever happened to Tom? 

A note about the downloads from zippyshare.  They’re a great service and I like them.  But they only keep up active stuff.  If a file hasn’t been downloaded for 30 days, it goes bye bye to the eternal cloud in the sky.  I find it surprising this has only happened once since I started this.  But it seems everyone in the know who wants to download this stuff has pretty much done so.  So, mixes will start disappearing.  This endeavor takes enough out of my time.  It’s a work of love and I enjoy putting the mixes together but not the uploading and all that it entails.  So, get ‘em now while you can.  Once they expire, I might not put them up again.

See below for scan credits.  Enjoy!
