Mike Dixon is a man who runs a record label out of Olympia known as "People in a Position to Know Records." As of this Saturday, he will be a married man. To celebrate, he is putting out a "love-song" compilation that is available on his webite here This includes a Firs of Prey cover of "This will be Our Year" by the Zombies, which I just recorded last week with my good friend Shannon Steele. Now, when I say limited time...I mean these songs literally won't be available online after the 26th of June (I know last minute, my apologies) so now is the time to get these songs if you want them.Here's a track list of the comp:
