Bob's 80s Meltdown

Here's a 'mix' I did recently for a friend. Thought I'd share.

Its rough as guts, booze was involved.... and well I'm no mixer at the best of times.

The theme is music from the eighties, my eighties not the decade currently being recycled via many a average CD compilation, not that this is better its just more reflective of some of my musical experiences of that decade.

This isn't about making any musical statement, its not all tracks I'd normally play, rather its a simple mix tape for a party and as such has some tracks I adore and some I simply find mildly amusing but fit what I was interested in creating.

All tracks are played from vinyl badly, as thats what I do :) I'd quite like to redo it whilst sober but the chances of that happening are pretty much nil.
