Just wanted to mention that I love that Camper Van Beethoven song. I think that's off a record of theirs that kind of gets overlooked. People often go for the one with Take the Skinheads Bowling or they go to later stuff like revolutionary Sweethart and beyond.

Diverse mix.

Dead on, that song, and that CVB album are priceless.

Aces on the mix. I could listen to that on repeat all day.

Came across this mix tape again, was going to post the tracklisting and then I thought I'd do a search.

I'm getting there.
Anyway, it's still a fun listen.

I made many mixes over the span of our courtship and marriage and she has loved every damn one of them. She is a very open-minded chick, which was one of the things that attracted me to her.
