1. Laughing Light of Plenty, "The Rose"

I was a little taken aback to hear a bunch of people delicately asking me if I'd reverbed this track up in the mix when I posted it to the ILX mix competition thread; to my ears, "The Rose" is one of the least-obstreporous nu-disco songs I've ever encountered from start to finish, like an exsquisitely-balanced alchemy of the Steve Miller Band's "Rock 'n Me" and the Talking Heads' "I Zimbra" (well, sorta, anyway). Some day I'll invent that time machine I'm always talking about and take a copy of this record back to 1978. Then you'll all see. (Actual copies of "The Rose" are pretty hard to come by these days; your best bet is either GEMM or the Discogs marketplace.)
