Comment:

My best friend has left for the US, where he is to make a road trip across the country. We have a long tradition of compiling mixes for each other for such occasions and this mix features choice picks from the three disc set I gave him for his long journey. To me these tracks just ooze with all that is great about pop!

This looks nice. "Ca plane pour moi," was that in 1979? I remember it well, it was a huge summer hit in Belgium where I lived that summer.

I especially love the Ronnie Spector, ABBA, Papas Fritas, Dean Martin block. You're nice friend to make these road trip soundtracks.

There's no way to be "board" when listening to this mix. Props for the Bandits, Pipettes, Hal and the Pearlfishers. Cool cover too!
