Comment:
A fun "welcome to my musical tastes" mix for a very close friend that I don't get to spend much time with, in person. I had a really hard time of it because there were SO many songs I wanted to put on - I didn't want to make it overly punked out or screamy or folky or misleading, I guess. I think I covered the bases pretty well. Got lots of grrl singers, plenty of screamy noisy stuff, lots of local bands, some old classics, some new stuff I'm crazy about. There's a great string of raunch on the first side (tracks 3-6) because she's fabulously raunchy, and there's a string of very political stuff on the second side because that's what *I'm* all about. I like this mix a lot because the transitions are really smooth in most places, and every now and then, BAM, you get Op Ivy out of nowhere, or BAM there's the weakerthans after a quiet exit from World B. yeah. I might copy it before I give it to her.Feedback:
fun...great title!
This type of mix is really hard to do just because the scope of musical taste can't be limited to one CD very easily.
This looks like a good one. I recommend copying it liberally and giving it to other

friends as well. I can never answer the "what kind of music..." question with any satisfactory answer.
