All mixed up- Acute disresonance, but some real gems here.

This could be described as an unpopular pop music sampler. This is for people who like to stretch their boundaries a little, and cannot find anything now on FM radio they like.
It starts out rather subdued the first few tracks. I tend to skip through some of those. But in the middle it really picks up beginning with a great Zappa instrumental and a wonderful George Thorogood blues song- Madison Blues. Then followed by some more good eclectic music. Hello Skinny by the Residents is wonderfully weird, as is the raunchy rap song by B-Boy Rhime and Riddle which is very funny but violent as is sometimes typical with these. An excellent Devo instrumental is here. Near the end is a rare Duet with Doc Watson and Merl Watson. You may be skipping around some of these, but don't miss the real jewels like this. Some decent old-style country and other strange stuff. Most of it quite worth a listen. This is one of the last of the pre-internet music samplers, and one of the best from the late 1980s.
