I still have an extra copy of my Road Trip CD waiting for [livejournal.com profile] cakmpls. Is anybody else interested? Dave, did we swap already? I can't remember. If not, please bring a copy of yours to Minnstf today.

I also have a beautiful CD of songs about horses ready to go, if anybody is interested in that. I really made it for my sister, who loves both horses and songs with stories. As one might expect from that intersection of interests, it leans rather heavily to the country/cowboy side of the musical spectrum. Potentially it could also tilt towards coded songs about heroin, but it turns out I don't have a copy of "Horse with No Name."

Others that I have in progress include:


  • Summer in the City - (playlist complete, haven't done the labels yet)

  • Every Must Get Stoned (playlist more than complete - still trying to pare this one down. Songs about drugs ... not exactly hard to come by).

  • Getting in Touch (songs about phone calls and letters). No, really. For no particular reason except that I realized I actually had enough songs on this theme to just about fill a CD. Your Collection May Vary

  • Train Songs (another one that just about anybody cold participate in, especially if they have any Johnny Cash songs at all).

  • BeBopaLula (songs with nonsense words). This is another one where I have too many songs to choose from, from the title song to Harry Belafonte to Bobby McFerrin.



Actually, I have dozens of other theme playlists, but many of them are either too short or too long for a CD. The reasons I have all these theme playlists is because I have an iPod shuffle. This leads you down a completely different pathway than people who have the kind of iPod where you can load your entire song collection once and just leave it there.
