Comment:

A 2-disc set arranged (more or less) into Eastbound and Westbound discs, with various north-south perambulations. An unintentionally diverse set of tunes due to the inherently limited nature of the theme; some works better than others, but gave me a chance to scrape some of the farthest corners of my collection.

Not just a fun theme, looks as though it would be just as fun to actually hear. Great scraping of the farthest corners...

Looks pretty damned cool to me, my friend. You could probably do an entire disc of travel-themed songs by the Mountain Goats... hey, wait a second...

Most excellent. Tons of great picks - it's like seeing the country without ever having to eat a Cracker Barrel. My faves from this are Game Theory, the Shazam, Frank Black, and X.
