All the songs on this mixtape were introduced to me by one very good friend of mine. We'll call him G, which keeps him mysterious. I went looking for grasshoppers with G this summer.
I like tracks. They make me float.

Mix title from the song by The Books.

Length: 00:07:22
Year: 1971
Track Description:
Well there you go. He's the one who introduced me to CAN. Tago Mago is a masterpiece. Oh Yeah is a masterpiece. The first verse is played backwards, the third verse is in japanese. What is in the middle is this:

As your silver hair save that,
For you got to better not there.
I see your own cheeks, saves that,
It’s a time you’re my lasting sign.
They have got to sue the passing
As you do too everyday.
Still you point at them and then
Sometimes I’m the slave.

I like Smog a lot. In this song, he takes you on a journey through his desires. The guard asks himself why he's not enjoying his freedom when he sees the prisoners having fun in the river. He feels like he's a prisoner himself, as if being free is his prison. This track gives me chills.

I never saw 'Breakfast on Pluto', but is sounds oddly interesting...
It was kind of hard to fit Boney M in somewhere in this mix, but I'm glad it worked out. Thanks for the comments.

Despite the fact that TEAM ROBOT was crushed like a Pabst can at a frat party by the might claws of TEAM MONSTER, you are still deserving of a badge... Loser.

lover of the russian queen........excellent!

I also like the beefheart, sonic youth and the buffalo springfield.

Pointless bit of trivia, I once stayed in the hotel in Amsterdam that Chet Baker died in. Our room was right across from the actual room he fell from.
