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.
Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I changed out one song for another and managed to get my playlist down to 7 hours, 59 minutes. Whew.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
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? :)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
would it be terribly wrong to include the Cantina Band Theme from Star Wars on my mix?
So very Proustian for me. All the music from the movie, actually. I remember when they re-released it, when the theme started and the text started scrolling up the screen, I actually got teary.
I was embarassed, until my friends told me they had the same reaction.

I have no idea why I typed "7 hours." Feh.
Alas, I have no Ring Cycle to share, but I would be more than happy to share a boatload of Puccini, Verdi, and Mozart.

The Ring Cycle lasts a lot longer than 7 hours, actually...
Hayden, I can't see those liner notes on your blog...I'm intrigued to find out what song we have in common!

It's alphabetical, dear Angus.
Jon, did you know this?
Jolly Roger Recording in Hoboken, New Jersey recently completed the recording and mixing of the soundtrack for the MTV full length movie of the poplar animated series "DARIA."
The soundtrack was written and performed by JANET WYGAL of the band SPLENDORA who originally recorded the theme song of the long running MTV weekly DARIA animated series.
That's from 2001. In case you wondered what Janet was up to. I'm writing about The Individuals for the book.

I knew that Janet did the theme song, but I never watched Daria and didn't know there was a full-length film.
Splendora (originally known as Popsicle) had a great demo cassette in 1993 that I played to death on the radio. I got them a show at the Middle East around that time. She was as nice as she was beautiful (and as The Most Beautiful Woman in Indie-Rock, that says a lot) As I write this, I found a second demo that Janet sent me a year later, complete with a hand-written note and the closing "Hope you're swell -- Janet." I remember that the 12-year-old in me was giggling for a week.
