Comment:

Songs about the coming of the night. Not a mix that should necessarily be played at night, as the first side of the tape is slightly disturbing for the first half. I suppose you could fall asleep to the second side. There's fewer songs on the second side because two tracks are really long ("Night Falls Over Hoboken" is pretty epic). Title taken from the Pavement track, if I transcribed the lyrics correctly.

On the right track.
