Mix Tape-September 2010

A road trip out west proved to be just the medicine I needed. As we scoured the long desert roads and dark nights of Wyoming, Arizona, and New Mexico I remember frozen moments where the music and the landscape seem to move perfectly together. My girlfriend introduced me to the Tallest Man on Earth. This mix was inspired by them. Check out her work here and here.!

Where were you when this album came out?

The same year Xzibit blew up..

It was 1996, I was 14.

If I knew then what I know now........

This remains one of the all time best rap albums!

Elvis died this day in 1977. His music was and still is one of a kind. I always appreciate styles that you can only find in one place. Unlike today with every new band seemingly becoming one sound. Elvis killed it back then and continues today.

Elvis Presley - Do The Clam

Elvis Presley - Song of the Shrimp

This remix is Amazing.. A great tribute to the King....
