Mixtape #1

360 views

For your weekend listening enjoyment (albeit a little late, I apologize for that), I present you, good people of the internets, with “ElizaMae’s” Mixtape #1.

If you came of age in the 80’s, you probably unwrapped a Maxell XLII 90 or 100 (only the best would do…none of that clear Memorex garbage) in your day and made a mix tape for someone…anyone.  Well, I never really grew out of that phase.

Music is one of my loves, and while my tastes are not exactly mainstream (there are probably enough bands/songs that you will recognize), they aren’t what one would call “cutting edge” either.

I do have a sizable collection (+500 Gigs), and I do enjoy sifting through my library and plucking out 90 to 100 minutes of music (you know, in keeping with the original spirit of the length limitations of cassettes.  Remember having to try and figure out where to put the flip?  That was always a challenge).  So, yes, this all comes from my personal collection…this isn’t a playlist of various youtube videos collected from the internets…I made all of these “videos” myself.

BEHOLD:

  1. You have good taste in music! Sounds like we grew up at the same time listening to the same stuff..still remember Bandwagonesque being one of my faves!…Spin magazine’s top album of 1990 if memory serves me right!

    • Thanks.

      I still believe that Bandwagonesque might be the most under-appreciated album in the history of music…no hyperbole.

  2. great post(mix), EM.

    Maxell XLII 90 or 100..
    😉

    • Heh, I actually found a box of unopened XLII’s prior to moving a few months ago…it was like opening a time capsule.

  3. Caribou is good shit.
