Campfire mixtape by Marcus Eoin (one half of BoC)

1. John Denver - "I'd Rather be a Cowboy"

  • For collecting firewood

2. John Frusciante - "Regret"

  • Now the fire's lit we need spacerock.

3. Sufjan Stevens - "A Good Man is Hard to Find"

  • There's a great out of tune chorus that shouldn't work but it does.

4. Smith Perkins Smith - "Say no More"

  • A cowboy classic. Any song that uses 'dust bowl' gets my thumbs up.

5. The Beach Boys - "Celebrate the News"

  • There's a beach boys song for every occasion. Who needs drugs when there's music like this.

6. Ween - "Among his Tribe"

  • Time to get the marshmallows out. Ween are so good they're like a hundred bands for the price of one.

7. Yo La Tengo - "Tiny Birds"

  • Time to gather some more combustibles.

8. Bonnie Prince Billy - "No More Workhouse Blues"

  • The best use of pedal steel I've heard in a long while.

9. Mark Johnson - "Asia Major"

  • By now you'll be lying on your back looking at the stars. The best song writer this side of the Kuiper Belt.

10. Joni Mitchell - "Amelia"

  • Maybe the most perfect song ever recorded. When the fire's burning down and you want one last song echoing out as you make your way home, this should be it.
