Okay, so a little predictable, but I reckoned I should play it safe with the first I post..so as not to offend anybody with the potential for undeniably atrocious choices y'know. So here it is. I made this as a cd, because - as many may relate with - my tape player is all clackety, and it wakes the younger siblings..oh ho, considerate me. Yes, anyway, it makes me smile, and drift off, so all in all, a success methinks..

| 1 | Interpol : Not Even Jail |

Interpol never strike me as great starters to mixed tapes but this just seems to kick it off nicely.

This is a nice one for the late hours, the early hours and the little moments in the day where you just nice bit of thinkspace. Although not Strummer's finest, it still beats a hell of alot out there these days, I'd say.

| 6 | Red Hot Chili Peppers : Snow (Hey Oh) |

To bring things back a bit to nowadays. This song I listened to for a good week straight, along with Wet Sand, and together, they pulled me through a bit of a down patch, means alot to me to find songs that can do that.

To reel you back gently, so you don't go drifting off before the end. Reminds me of my uh.."punk phase", which all British - as I know not alot of adolescent societies elsewhere - teenage variants are obliged to delve into with the utmost vim and vigour.

Lots of good stuff here. Nice surprise to see Strummer and the Mescalero en lieu of the Clash. Pluses all around.

Oh. there is a lot here that I like. For instance, putting say Floyd and The Adverts and Rory Gallagher on the same Mixtape. (Sorry, CD.) I like a lot more of it as well. Glad you are at mtc.
