    2 B-sides and 2 unreleased songs would have made this a much cooler collection. And one of the Costello tracks from Flowers in the Dirt, maybe a weird remix of a Rushes Fireman track....As is..eh...it's a playlist you can make on Spotify.

    The cover is pretty dang cool though. I like the artwork!

    It could have been much cooler, career defining even. As it is it feels thrown together.

    I think the "mixtape" idea is a fine one especially if its really Paul picking them and having input on the running order---that's actually way cool.

    It just needed some more curveballs and a little unreleased material. Also a more personal touch to the design. Like, it's Paul's tracklists, so have him hand write all the song titles.

    Also, a series or have the albums sort of separate by era but packaged together. So the songs bounce around a lot within each era, but there'd be roughly a 70s mix, an 80s mix, a 90s-early 2000s mix, then a Chaos-Present Day mix....something like that.

    I kinda like it. The curvy, thin font is easy on the eye and it looks classy. Paul seems to have a thing for that.

    I do think the inner sleeves should have been open on top. They’re wide enough for a cd to roll out at the side if you’re not careful enough.
