...with a song in your heart?

california (parts one or two) by mason jennings would be good too

you made a cd about california without tupoc?

I moved out to California last year, and have been thinking of putting together a similar mix -- you beat me to it! Other great tracks include: California (The Wedding Present); Los Angeles (X); Palo Alto (Radiohead); Sacramento (Heavenly); and the hilarious instrumental Dune Buggy War at Pismo Beach (Mofos). Enjoy your trip!

rufus wainwright's "california" is a good 'un.

great bands on here! i'm making a cd for my friend who's moving to california for school and these help alot, mixes up the normal ones a bit.
