Special thanks to supermixologist Beth, who came through like the hero she is, and provided a large number of the songs for the mix!
If the participants of this mix want to discuss their own selections, please feel free to do so! I'll put a pointer on this post if you end up posting about it on your own blog (or you could always just add comments here, I suppose).

If I am not mistaken "A Boy Named Sue" is the only song to ever appear twice on tow different Green Monkey Music Project mixes.
This was a great way to wrap up the GMMP. War, sex, what more could you want? Except maybe chocolate.
You're very welcome, sir. Now I need to download the rest of 'em.
Great GMMP, BeckEye!
dr mvm, actually there is at least one other I can think of off the top of my head. "Pablo Picasso" appeared on both the Snotty and Speed It Up mixes. There was a distinct possibility of it also appearing on Volume 10, but we dodged that bullet.
barbara, mmmmm. chocolate mixtapes.
beth, if there ever is a Volume 11 for GMMP, I want you to host it.
While we're on statistics, who's the most-appeared artist/band duirng the reign of the GMMP?
J.D., answer posted here.
Yay!
