First in a series of mixtapes. Guess the theme.

	Track 6 from american water Length: 00:04:38 Year: 1998
	Track Description: I saw Silver Jews at a rock festival in my hometown a couple of years ago, and it might have been one of the most under-appreciated acts in the history of that festival. These practically-legends performed on a stage that otherwise was host of a number of unknown Swedish bands, half of them unsigned, the others just bad. They had been scheduled to play at the same time as some Swedish national monument (I don't remember, maybe Kent), and I felt downright sorry for them as they played their set for an audience of, oh...25 people? Despite that, they seemed good humoured about it, and I certainly have no complaints about their effort. SHOW LESS
2	Bob Dylan : Tangled Up in Blue
	I feel pathetic trying to say something meaningful about Bob Dylan and/or Tangled Up in Blue. It fits the them [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 1 from Blood on the Tracks Length: 00:05:44 Year: 0000
	Track Description: I feel pathetic trying to say something meaningful about Bob Dylan and/or Tangled Up in Blue. It fits the theme, ok? SHOW LESS
3	Woven Hand : Dirty Blue
	Earthy, dramatic, gothic americana. I love Woven Hand so. I saw them live at a rock festival in my hometown (t [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 8 from Mosaic Length: 00:04:43 Year: 2006
	Track Description: Earthy, dramatic, gothic americana. I love Woven Hand so. I saw them live at a rock festival in my hometown (the same I saw Silver Jews, except Wowen Hand was this year, Silver Jews a few years ago), and David Eugene Edwards (does he ever shorten that?) was in a hilariously antagonistic mode. He was heckling the audicence, and the audience heckled him back, and in between, he performed magical songs like this one. SHOW LESS
4	Bessie Smith : Blue Spirit Blues
	The heart of a mix on the color blue has to be the blues, right? SHOW MORE
	Track 20 from Nothing but the Blues: Bessie Smith (disc 2) Length: 00:02:56 Year: 1998
	Track Description: The heart of a mix on the color blue has to be the blues, right? SHOW LESS

	Track 1 from Get Behind Me Satan Length: 00:02:34 Year: 2005
	Track Description: Rock out. My favorite White Stripes song? Eh, I think it was in the past, now I'm less certain which I like better. But I obsessed a good bit about this track for a while. SHOW LESS
6	Reeks and the Wrecks : Blue Ballroom
	Had to add these to the database. Reeks and the Wrecks is the new wave of blues, dark, seedy and mean. Trombon [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 1 from Knife Hits Length: 00:03:07 Year: 2005
	Track Description: Had to add these to the database. Reeks and the Wrecks is the new wave of blues, dark, seedy and mean. Trombones and guitars fight for your attention. SHOW LESS
7	Pavement : Blue Hawaiian
	One of my favorite songs by Pavement, and that says a lot. SHOW MORE
	Track 8 from Brighten the Corners Length: 00:03:33 Year: 1997
	Track Description: One of my favorite songs by Pavement, and that says a lot. SHOW LESS
8	The Who : Behind Blue Eyes
	A classic. SHOW MORE
	Track 8 from Who's Next Length: 00:03:40 Year: 1971
	Track Description: A classic. SHOW LESS
9	Julie London : Blue Moon
	Transitioning into Squirrel Nut Zippers, this works surprisingly well. SHOW MORE
	Track 7 from The Ultimate Collection Length: 00:02:32 Year: 2006
	Track Description: Transitioning into Squirrel Nut Zippers, this works surprisingly well. SHOW LESS
10	Squirrel Nut Zippers : Blue Angel
	I had to add Squirrel Nut Zippers to the database? For real? SHOW MORE
	Track 11 from Hot Length: 00:04:35 Year: 1996
	Track Description: I had to add Squirrel Nut Zippers to the database? For real? SHOW LESS
11	The Fratellis : Ole Black 'n' Blue Eyes

	Track 13 from Costello Music Length: 00:03:10 Year: 2007
	Track Description: Had to add these too... The track is mostly here to bridge the gap between the styles of Squirrel Nut Zippers and Ween... SHOW LESS
12	Ween : Blue Balloon
	Well, at least I didn't have to add Ween. Thank goodness. That this bagatelle of a song hadn't been used befor [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 2 from La Cucaracha Length: 00:03:53 Year: 2007
	Track Description: Well, at least I didn't have to add Ween. Thank goodness. That this bagatelle of a song hadn't been used before wasn't surprising however. At least, it sounds like a bagatelle. I hear people say it's about heroin use, but what do I know. SHOW LESS
13	Belle and Sebastian : The Blues Are Still Blue
	Not bragging, but I don't think it's possible to create a more natural transition from Ween to Belle and Sebas [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 4 from The Life Pursuit Length: 00:04:08 Year: 2006
	Track Description: Not bragging, but I don't think it's possible to create a more natural transition from Ween to Belle and Sebastian. SHOW LESS

	Track 10 from The Animal Years Length: 00:09:38 Year: 2006
	Track Description: I almost never listen to Josh Ritter, but this song is epic. And not just in length. Nine freaking minutes, what does he think he's doing? Post-rock? SHOW LESS
15	Sunn0))) & Boris : The Sinking Belle (Blue Sheep)
	I'm a big fan of Boris, but I didn't expect their collaboration with Sunn0))) to produce something like this. [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 0 from Altar Length: 00:07:37 Year: 2006
	Track Description: I'm a big fan of Boris, but I didn't expect their collaboration with Sunn0))) to produce something like this. It's not drone, it's not abrasive, it's mellow, and beautiful. SHOW LESS
