Comment:
My co-worker's last day at the newspaper is tomorrow. As of 4:00, he will basically be homeless and unemployed as he ventures off to start a new life, possibly in a city other than Chicago. This is for him.Feedback:
Looks like as swell of a send off as one could ask for . . . a new life . . . sigh.
Your co-worker's lucky. I wish any of my former co-workers had as good a taste in music as you. The final two songs on side B are perfect!
this looks sweet. there is some really awesome stuff on there.
wow! i LOVE this, side two, especially. who needs a home or job when you have a mix like this? music is all we need to fortify the soul. :)
Hell, I know I've only been here 6 months, but why would anyone leave Chicago? Also, super music! Seriously, nice variety of pop-perfection.
so you mean he's gonna walk the earth, meet people, get into adventures - like caine from "kung fu"? very, very nice vibe going on here - love the rod stewart, led zep, kinks, beulah, nick drake & ryan adams closer especially. hope to see more from you around here
A beaut.
lubbly jubbly !
Nice stuff... new starts are good for the soul.
the wrens song is perfect.
This is just wonderful. Love the Rod Stewart -> Decemberists -> Go-Betweens bit especially.
Too many favourites to list here! A good mix to start a new life with, I think.
Liking this alot.
