I originally posted this back 2012 but the files have long been dead. I decided to resurrect and restore because you deserve it.
This
is one helluva collection, if I do say so myself. This two-parter
gathers the original versions of a surplus of songs covered by Mr.
McManus over the years. You will get the original versions of everything
found on both "Almost Blue" and "Kojak Variety," as well as a plethora
of EC bonus tracks and b-sides all by the original artists.
What else can I say?
Dig in.
Enjoy the Weekend Mixes!

This looks great. Thank you for sharing. Wishing you and yours an outstanding weekend. :)
Thanks Doc. Glad you dig it.
I have all of these, but thank you for reminding me that I have them. I will be listening to them again.
Outstanding! Thank you for this.
Wonder what could be added since your original compilation. I remember hearing his version of Brilliant Disguise, but that predates 2012
I posted in 2012, but I think the compilation had been around much longer. It's entirely possible "Brilliant Disguise" wasn't recorded yet.
Wow. Seriiously -- wow.
Very cool mix. Who else is a good songwriter but covers enough other artists to justify a collection like this?
Great Weekend Mix idea! Thank you for sharing.

Great compilation, and much appreciated. Thank you
Zip files are not unzipping by trying a few of my Mac utilities. Normally double-clicking works.
David. The two links aren't zip files. They take you the WeTransfer page where you can download. Just double checked and all is working.
Thanks, Sal. It seems such a curious idea- nice!
Looks fantastic - thank you!
Make My Weekend!! Thanks Sal.
Hard for me to think of another tip tier songwriter that is also a tip tier interpreter. Great mix Sal, hope you are enjoying the weekend
Thanks. This is great.
All great songs, thanks, Sal! I'm a little surprised that EC said he never heard of Merle Haggard until he Gram Parson's cover of "Tonight The Bottle Let Me Down". Maybe they don't have much country radio across the pond.
