Made as a portion of the musical fare for a five state road trip I took with a business associate (Bill, see track 7) last month (a consensus building strategy for a business project - see the stakeholders face-to-face). Starts out slowly, as one might on a trip of this nature (refreshed)...and builds in volume and noise content...so as to keep the driver awake.

Phew, it's a good job I got over my cloud phobia some years ago. Looks lovely gene. Nice to see a double helping of M,M&W..

Thanks, Sammy.
The 1st MMW tune is all of 30 seconds long...so I figured it wasn't breaking any actual mixing rules (are there rules??) by stringing two together.

Rules? Forget that! Incredible Jan Garberek Group track. That stuck out instantly for me. The closer was really good too. Another brilliantly sequenced mix.

I know you had a dilemma picking a category: Jazz, or Road Trip? Looks jazzy.

Hah...thanks, Ed; I had forgotten that there even was a "Road Trip" category.

Driving down I-70, approaching Indianapolis, while the soft tunes seque into hard-edged experimental Jazz kept me awake and focussed as traffic ran me off the road at one point, and later, when the tractor trailers played "squeeze the Galant" in the blasting snow. A trip I will never forget.

I am honored to have the original CD in my possession. Onward, G.A.B. 1e10+6

This seems very interesting, I would never think of these songs for a road trip. But I'm like Gobi, on my windows 98 machine, so I can't download.
