1981 Dan's Didactic Mixtape
This is the first mixtape I think I ever owned. It was made for me as a sort of elementary musical education by the older brother of a school friend. It dates from about 1981, as most of the tracks date from then or a few years earlier. I still think the playlist stands up, 30 years later, so thanks Dan!
Coincidentally, another friend of mine later married one of Spizzenergi. He's now very respectable - you'd never guess.
