Comment:

This mix was purely by request.

My brother asked for "some eighties party tunes...and none of the wacky "stuff" that you listen to..."

And, then, he proceded to give me four examples (2 of which were new wave songs from the 70s).

But, far be it from me to turn away even the slimmest possibility of expanding his musical pallette.

I realize these are pretty basic, but there are a number of tracks which will be revelations to him.

Hope you enjoy.
