This is my personal mix of \"Frances the Mute,\" including the single \"Frances the Mute\" added on the beginning, how The Mars Volta intended. All ambient transitions have been shortened so that the full album can fit on an 80-minute CD. This is my favorite album of all time, and this is my preferred method of listening to the album. I wanted to keep all ambient sections and transitions involved, as well as to make it a seamless straight-through listen. I hope you fellow Mars Volta fans will enjoy as well. Cheers.
