Comment:

Made for a good friend of mine who just quit the job he hates. There's sort of a double theme going on, because we had a bit of romantic drama which has almost sorted itself out, but not entirely (hence "girl troubles" etc). It started out as a very pointed tape about quitting your job and doing what you want [there's a bob dylan quote on the cover: "A man is successful if he gets up in the morning, gets to bed at night, and in between he does what he wants to do."], but the themes sort of disintegrate toward the middle [yeah, I just can't explain my tendency to put one totally random Brak song on almost every tape I make]. But yeah. This kid's really neat.
