Comment:

Nothing too new on this one. Since I make most of my tapes for other people, songs tend to overlap a lot. Here are the notes I included with the tape, and my additional comments (explaining inside jokes and the like) to you are in parentheses.



4. This is a Korean band Ali got me into. (Ali is my best friend. The receiver of this tape is half-Japanese, so I thought he'd be interested in where this band was from.)


13. I put these songs together because they sound awesome. Then I realized that it's hilarious, because "Bullet" is about JFK's assassination.


14. I didn't put this in the notes because I thought it would be insensitive, but his dad is a former Marine...


15. When I was 7, I was furious that he only played bars. I was going to write him a letter asking him to play somewhere that I could go.


(My father did indeed go to this show, it was his 39th birthday. He got trashed and partied with Warren Zevon onstage. There wasn't enough room on the paper to include this part. ha!)


Side 2:


1. I love it when foreign bands sing songs about the good ol' days of America. Thin Lizzy is an Irish band.


2. this is the song I got the title from!!!


3. If you listen closely, you can hear Levon helm carry on the harmony long after everyone else.


4. There are no hidde (or overt) double meanings. I think this song is absolutely gorgeous and that's why I put it on here.


(The receiver of this tape is my ex-boyfriend. My current boyfriend thought it would be hilarious if I just left it on there with no explanation.)


6. This isn't quite as funny without the purple sequin jumpsuit, gratuitous leg kicks, or horn section. Oh well, it's still a great song.

Those are all the ones that matter, anyway.
