Comment:

A really random oldies tape with a Dilbert picture on the cover. I hope the recipient doesn't think this is too scatterbrained, but I wanted to include everything that I thought of when I think of oldies radio. (Brought to you, in part by, Oldies 95 FM, Good Times, Great Oldies!!) It's nice to be back.

I think it's some unwritten (or possibly written) law that all oldies stations in the country MUST have "Good Time, Great Oldies!" as their slogan. Lots of good tunes on here, I'm sure your recepient, if he/she's got any taste in music, will enjoy it immensely. Quite the progressive oldies station you've got, if it plays "Bob Dylan's 115th Dream!" (Don't you love the false start beginning of that song? Bob's laugh makes me happy.0
