I was cleaning out my hallway closet today and found a few cassette tapes on the floor.I have 2 sheves of old cassette mixes I made in the late 1980s,-2003.Many People need to have a reason to make a mix like engagements,love songs and break up songs.For me I want the music to lift me up.I have enough stuff to remind me of bad times so I never did a break up mix.Oh sure I made mixes at the time I broke up with boys but that music is what helped heal the heartache so I never made heartache a subject.Oh heck im rambling.
Well anyways heres a mixtape I found that I made in 1986.
Creation Date Jan 27,28 1986

What was the reason for this mix.
All I need to make a mix is a cool batch of songs!
