[Note: Way, way back in the old Jefitoblog days, we had a friend/frequent commenter named Billy K. Harmony. Billy's too cool for Popdose, but even if he's gone, he hasn't been forgotten — and when digging through my files for this week's mixtape, I rediscovered a stack o' tunes Billy sent me a few years ago for a prospective post. Here, at long last, is Billy K.'s mix. Enjoy! —J]
