Comment:

Disc 05 / 48 of Timothology: Strange Aeons, the current iteration of a mixtape set generally containing English language pop and rock music 1955-2000 or so. I started making Timothology tapes in 1996 and with a CD burner the project has gone from futuristic to retro without me doing anything in particular to head in either direction.

Disc 05 is my salute to telecommunications technology, with a nod to the past. Every song is named for or is about some kind of communications technology--radio, television, satellites, telegraphs or smoke signals (so I could sneak a Joe Meek track in).
