I drive a Ford Taurus.

The '91 Taurus has remarkably comfortable seats, which often entices to just chill out [be it drunk or high, the Taurus does not turn away!].

All my friends want to listen to is either a Sabbath mix or The Meters 'Funkify Your Life' (disc 1), so I decided to make this little baby.

I'm proud of the pacing, and the overall vibe. So, here it is, for you to chill in your car, room, whatever. I recommend headphones.

The cover reminds me of a Diary of a Madman. My 89 Honda Accord would dig this mix in a real way.
