Got any more archived DM-vintage sets you want to post?

I have a few DM-vintage sets digitized, but they're all HFH sets.  I'll post them if there's interest in them.

that was a stellar segue, ahtellyouwhut.

and really, any one or two of the songs in this set would positively *transform* a typical Renee '89 LN-fest.

There was a bit of a tizzy here the other week, what with some personal changes and then
a short streak of stellar 10@10 sets (mostly from the late '60s).  The question seemed to be
if things had really taken a sharp turn for the better.

Subsequent weeks have led me to conclude the answer is no.

There has been a slight improvement across the board. and we did get a small number of
big winners.  The avoidance of anything in the 1990s for a while also helped.  But now the
'90s sets have returned and they have been underwhelming.  The usual lack of attention
to detail is evident not only in songs played in the wrong year, but the recent occurrences
of songs duplicated within days.  I am quite disposed to believe that those excellent sets
were merely happy accidents, the result of fortuitous choices made from a strong year.

No, I didn't.  I was going to ask after a specific DM HFH, but I have to figure out which one it is first.

I'll get back to you later today on that. My schedule has changed and I don't have as much opportunity to listen online lately. Sorry!
Let's get right to it.

quite liking this one, thanks!  the Juliana Hatfield cut made me write this: it's so jangly and fuzzy at the same time.
