Mixing it up

[ericcoleman]

So ... a friend asked me for a mix disc. I am to blame for a lot of what she listened to in the 80s and she thought she might be able to blame me a little more if I made her a disc of stuff that I am listening to. Here is what happened.

I've heard of everyone except #s 3, 6, and 12. Don't know any of them personally, however.

Out In The Heat may be my favorite record of all time. Victor is an amazing songwriter.

You may know Goanna's song Solid Rock rather than this (IMNSHO much better) song from the same record.

Waaaa?
