Feedback:
what's the criteria for the mix?? (if there are any others besides the release year, that is.) i love doing mixes like this.
there are some really nice tracks here, and the important October 1982 events are quite intriguing. I'm with noiseboy; what's yr theme?
maybe my comment was overly subtle; it's my 25th birthday present to myself.
Happy birthday!
I like tracks 2, 4, 6, 16 and 25. Are they your favorite tracks from each year?

October 28th: I was born! I like everything here. Fantastic mix.
ballroom pink: finding 25 songs that could fit on an 80 minute CD was a bigger factor, but I think most of these songs would've been on my top 5-10 list for each year.
your life in music. real great set, especially like Jesus & Mary Chain, Pixies, TV On the Radio and Neko Case. happy birthday.
Very nicely done.
Fantastic Job! Excuse me while I lift this idea for future bday gifts for friends.
