Comment:

Release date: 29 July 1989
This is the mix that started it all.
Made for Kim from Ridgewood, NJ. The cover photo features Art, Kim, and me lounging on my hotel bed at Gray Rocks, Feb 1989. The Wood Children were a UK band my sister was friendly with. The LP is prob'ly still in my parents' basement. The Affordable Floors were a great Pittsburgh band that my brother tuned me into when he was at CMU. The rest of this mix reeks of goofy 80's new-wave and Top-40.
