Comment:

Cyrus Trask is the patriach of the Trask family in John Steinbeck's East of Eden. After his first wife died, it was his main goal to find a new woman to woo, wed, and bed so he would have another son. The phrase "woo, wed, and bed" has stuck with me since I first heard it two years ago in senior AP English, and when I met a nice young boy, it became my M.O.

Side 1 is intended to Woo him, as he has a very particular taste in music and putting forth a good impression was imperative. Side 2 skips the wedding and goes straight to bedding because these songs are hypersexual.

Suffice to say, it worked quite well.
