Comment:

Something for my 18-year-old niece who's off in San Diego at college. Trying to introduce her to artists and genres with whom she's not familiar. Seems to be working. She told me her favorites off the last mix CD I sent were Robert Mitchum's "Thunder Road" and Marty Robbins' "Big Iron." There's hope yet...
