Sorry Thane for snooping, but I found this old tape that N and I made for you back in October 1991. It was in your tape case behind where my suitcase was. Wow, you actually kept this tape after all these years. There were more compilations that N made you plus a more 'recent' one I made (circa 1999) that had a whole bunch of Carl Stalling (old Warner Bros. cartoon orchestral music) and the Raymond Young Orchestra (known for 'Powerhouse Boogie' and other cartoon background scores).
The inner notes on the tape cover even indicated that it took two hours to make this cassette mix! With the exception of the Prince song at the end of side B, pretty much everthing is old school. I must have been the one who wanted Prince since it was my record. Every song was taped from either an actual record (LP or 45) or a cassette.

Oh, Canine! That is one cool mix! Hmmmm...now I feel like making a CD with some of those tunes! Cool stuff!
I love stumbling across old tapes and things from my past when I'm not expecting it. It's nice to have that blast from the past and think of the good 'ol days sometimes! *sigh* I miss those days of nothing but fun with friends, where the biggest decisions were what to wear or what songs to put on a mixed tape! LOL!
Nice mix CC, but no Disco Inferno?
Burn that mutha down :)
jack
that's because we didn't have any Trammps records!
Canine, since you enjoy compiling music and into Rock, perhaps you ought to consider entering this contest:
http://www.vh1.com/interact/sweepstakes/vh1classic/xm_playlist/
VH1 and FM Satalite Radio are running the contest.
You submit a classic rock playlist of 10, and if yours is deemed the best, you can win $1000, ten tickets to a local concert, a free year of XM satellite radio, and your playlist will be featured on the air with an intro by the winner.
Since Screg enjoys doing this kind of thing too, I'm also trying to get him to enter the contest.
