so my super stylish ’92 buick only has a cassette player. i have an ipod adapter dealy, but i find that to be really distracting while I drive, so i decided to switch it up. my dad has a bunch of old cassette tapes that, for some reason, he hasn’t gotten rid of yet. i went through them yesterday and found about ten or fifteen interesting ones. some of them have lovely 80s pop (supertramp, huey lewis and the news, etc.), while some have random classical music (mandolin solos, bassoon concertos, etc.). i also came across a mix tape that my parents got as a wedding favor in the early nineties. it’s quite entertaining. one side is titled “mary’s side” and has a bunch of u2 songs and a few other cheesy love songs, dedicated to her husband. The other side, “vince’s side” has an assortment of equally cheesy love songs, proclaiming his undying love and all that jazz. Although he does have some okay songs, so perhaps i can forgive him. oh, and i found a few decent greatest hits tapes, including the byrds, the hollies, and chicago. i was also pretty excited to find a bob dylan one too. all in all, it was a pretty successful cassette tape raid. so if anyone happens to hear me driving along with the song “higher love” by depeche mode blaring, just blame vince.
