Comment:

Yet another drinking mix, this is my response to the "challenge" posed by the third episode of Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour. Since I'd already done one more-or-less booze themed mix, I didn't want to repeat tracks from that mix - fortunately, there's no shortage of songs about drinking (or suffering the next morning, or swearing it off...). In fact, I couldn't bring myself to cut either of the two songs each by George Jones and Willie Nelson. Title from Dylan's song "I Want You."

You have definitely captured the power of positive drinking.

I hadn't give a thought to Highway 101 is a long while. Nice pick.

Not to worry Mark. It isn't really a drinking mix unless it has at least two George Jones tracks on it. Cheers.

Makes me want to drink, and I'm kind of a teatotaller.

How many artists recorded Drinkin' Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee? I reckon a mix could be built around that one track. Great mix here, love the Reed & Waits picks..
