Part fourteen of an array of CD mixes I made for my wife over a long number of years! Read more about it here!
This is not a well-designed cover. The font feels awkward and I leaned way too much into drop-shadows.
However? I vividly remember taking the photo. I was visiting a friend and noticed the burn stains and reflected on what may have caused it, knowing I’d never get an answer.
Not every great moment lends itself to a great image, but I hold it precious.
Highlights? Motherfucking FIGHT LIKE APES’ ‘I’m Beginning To Think You Prefer Beverly Hills 90210 To Me’! NICO VEGA’s ‘Beast‘! THE LONG BLONDES’ ‘Five Ways to End It’! So good! I cannot keep myself from rocking out to those tracks! I’m doing so while penning this post!
