I have 80 minutes and 11 seconds. Think it'll work?
You really ought to get it below 80 minutes. How much space do you have between tracks? The default for many burning programs is two seconds, but you may be able to override that to something less.
(edited to make more sense)
I also looked at Angus' liner notes. I'll say only that my favorite song of the moment is probably Will Young's "Leave Right Now." Which puts me in no position to criticize others' guilty pleasures.
OK, I threw some semi-edited liner notes onto my blog, too: http://fater.blogspot.com
I hope Gandalfe approves.
Unlikely - I'm a disagreeable sonuvabitch. :)
Parental advisory - if I can manage to make it fit, my "Song You Love Just For The Title" is a bit blue. However, I'd have to shave off 20+ minutes, which probably won't happen.
I think Teppy's going to like my mix, too. I hope.
I suggest you all follow Hec's and erinaceous's lead and tailor your mixes to me....
Angus, I *adore* your Road Trip song! I have a song by the same artist on my mix, but from a different album.
Also, I remember posting here (or possibly in my LJ) that I suspected my car CD player was in league with the RIAA, because it didn't like to play burned CDs. (Really, it was just an older-model CD player.)
Well, that problem is fixed, since I had to buy a whole new car this weekend, and it has a newer CD player *and* a tape player.
Yes, it's a bit of overkill -- buying a car just to get a better CD player, but sometimes overkill is the right way to go....
Steph, I totally agree, seeing as how the final clincher for me when I bought my truck was that it came with a dual CD/tape player. Very nice...
Still working on my mix. Still need to rip a couple of things off vinyl.
I changed out one song for another and managed to get my playlist down to 7 hours, 59 minutes. Whew.
Not sure if this place was mentioned, but I found it to be a good source of songs by year:

7 hours, 59 minutes. Whew.
7 hours? Are you sharing the Ring Cycle with us?
Ooh, thanks for that link, Jon! I now know that my year of birth had some REALLY bad music. On the other hand, would it be terribly wrong to include the Cantina Band Theme from Star Wars on my mix? :)
