It's been a long time since I last put together a compilation and while I've been piling up songs that I like under a make-shift playlist I've not actually trimmed and organised it.
The recent trip to the Natal coast gives me a reason to trim and name it.

Long Time No Sea

1.  The Magic Numbers   Forever Lost
2.  XTC                 I'd Like That
3.  David Kramer        Biscuits and Biltong
4.  Luke Doucet         It's not the Liquor I miss
5.  Fleetwood Mac       Rhiannon
6.  Grant Lee Buffalo   Mighty Joe Moon
7.  Pearl Jam           Tremor Christ
8.  Fiona Apple         Get Him Back
9.  Calexico and
    Iron & Wine         A History of Lovers
10. King Creosote       My Favourite Girl
11. Travis              Last Train
12. David Kramer        Annette van der Wa

A couple of notes:
- The David Kramer song is the last to be added to the list. Its's about time that I add a song from one of my all-time favourite albums; Bakgat!
- The one song that feels a bit out of place is Tremor Christ, but I've felt that I didn't really pay it enough attention first time around (back in 199x) and it really is flippin' amazing.
- If I could keep only one song from the list it would be XTC - oh, or Calexico and Iron & Wine - or King Creosote.
