Comment:

I compiled this in 2002 during an attack of the nostalgias. It's part of a trilogy -- aargh! Ah, but which part? I will probably post the others -- you have been warned. I suppose that this selection will not be opening any insightful windows or doors to anyone out there. Nonetheless. every track is burned in my memory and I feel my footsteps in the faded photos. Stick this cd in the car stereo (ha ha), wait for twilight and start your journey. The miles/kilometres will flicker by most agreeably, I promise. "Lift up your feet and put them on the ground, The hills were higher when we were young.."

I would guess the musicians were higher, the audience was definitely higher, the ticket prices were way lower, & the quality of the songs "couldnt get no higher" than this - a nicely nostalgic set.

Really nice; would probably go as well sitting on the deck at twilight with a glass of wine.

Awesome Elton pick! This is one of the coolest 'Classic Rock' mixes I have seen on here. Well done!
