1419 points (Level 2)
Date Created: 9/06/08 12:06pm

Smokey Joe's Cafe
1581 points (Level 3)
Date Created: 9/09/08 03:13pm
Description: So why is it that musical artists who's name happens to be Joe never use the formal Joseph? Guess it just isn't as cool. Not that Joe's are necessarily cool.

There are all kind of Joe ...

1504 points (Level 3)
Date Created: 11/07/08 09:06am

Date Created: 9/13/08 07:12pm
Description: I moved from San Francisco to Oakland, California a bit over a year ago. When I did, I had to get rid of quite a few things; mostly books and records. I gave away or sold over 300 LPs and even more ...
Retro Potpourri

Date Created: 9/21/08 07:53pm
Description: Not only am I relatively new to MTC, but this is my very first potpourri mix. Just hope by limiting myself to retro music, I haven't made it any less of a potpourri. Think I was on the right track t ...

Date Created: 2/17/09 02:03pm
Description: This mix mainly looks at the period of 1966-1976 (exploring only five songs before that and one after). R&B music appears to have peaked in 1969-1973, but that may be at least in part due to what per ...

Date Created: 9/12/08 09:44am
Description: This is a mix I put together while making a Last.fm playlist. One song, the last one, they listed but you weren't able to even play a sample, while track 5 was a new discovery for me thanks to that s ...
Obama Playlist II
1114 points (Level 1)
Date Created: 11/01/08 02:51pm
Description: This is a bit shorter than my first mix inspired by Barack Obama, but for the most part it is in the right spirit I think. I'm hoping that the two mixes can be played while in a good mood election ev ...

Love On The Rocks
1658 points (Level 3)
Date Created: 2/02/09 01:37pm
