Comment:

First off: I stole this concept from Michael Alexander, who posted a similar mix here awhile back. For my own, slightly more expansive take on the mix, I started with the songs referenced in Hunter Thompson's classic book (less the Vegas showtunes), then filled out the balance with songs that conveyed similar moods. (Kinda like a lame movie soundtrack padded out with songs "inspired by" the film.) I ended up with a mix of late '60's San Francisco and L.A. psychedelia and country-tinged rock, early '70's protest songs, and some darker paranoia-drenched tunes for the book's darker turns. I also alternated the songs with dialogue from the film (cribbed from a few websites) -- requiring a few hours with CoolEdit to get the volume modulations right. Then played it constantly this weekend and enjoyed it quite a bit. I also put together some dynamite cover art, but, for some reason, I can't get AOTM to load the art. I'll try again later.
