The compilation has an impressive lineup, but the circumstances around it are heartbreaking: Almost a year after his wife Melissa died suddenly, 21 artists have contributed exclusive tracks to Ciao My Shining Star: The Songs of Mark Mulcahy to help the former Miracle Legion front man continue making music while he raises his three-year old twin daughters. If you don't remember that classic longstanding New Haven (and, early on, Rough Trade-associated) rock band, you might recall Mulcahy from his other group Polaris, who served as the house band on The Adventures of Pete & Pete. Since then, he's released three solo albums under his own name -- the last full-length was 2005's In Pursuit Of Your Happiness. Anyhow, even if he's new to you, he's clearly written a number of songs that mean something to a number of people, as you'll see via the collection's tracklist.
