My Hero ZeRO update


MISSING TRACKS

I've been informed that some of the tracks from the second half of the mix didn't come through on DL. I've upped the missing tracks to the same folder under "Missing MHZ", feel free to supplement your DL as necessary. I re-upped the second half adding Dick Dale (which for some reason wasn't included the first time) for anyone who hadn't gotten around to picking up the tracks yet.
