Personal: Playlists

Growing up I spent a lot of time in the car moving between coasts and I would prep by making mixtapes. A lot of mixtapes. Over the past 25 years or so I’ve set up arbitrary rules (no more than one song by any given artist on a tape! First song has to kick but second song has to kick even harder! Song flow has to make sense, etc etc) and album art followed once I started to give them to others as gifts.

These are a few I’ve made for myself and some friends during quarantine. Always excited to include Funeral For a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding because not only is it the greatest album opener of all time it allows me to skirt the single song rule since Elton John was kind enough to make two songs into one track. Thanks, Reg!
