As I sit here coding late into the night (and getting shit done!), I must credit the mix I'm listening to on the iPod. Behold, 1995!
  • 311, All Mixed Up
  • Rusted Root, Send Me on My Way
  • Alanis, All I Really Want
  • Bjork, Army of Me
  • Filter, Hey Man, Nice Shot
  • The Offspring, Come Out and Play
  • Foo Fighters, This Is A Call
  • Poe, Trigger Happy Jack
  • Garbage, Only Happy When It Rains
  • KMFDM, Juke Joint Jezebel
  • Lisa Loeb, Taffy
  • Radiohead, Fake Plastic Trees
  • The Rentals, Friends of P
  • The Toadies, Possum Kingdom
  • Smashing Pumpkins, Bullet With Butterfly Wings
  • Toad The Wet Sprocket, All In All
  • No Doubt, Don't Speak
  • Jill Sobule, I Kissed A Girl
  • Matthew Sweet, Sick of Myself
  • Jewel, Angel Standing By

Fuck... what happened to all of that variety in music? That's a lot of very different stuff from a particular year. Recent years' mixes are not nearly that diverse.

I need Ian and Gordon to drag me out of the 60's and 70's (and early 80's). Although... Ian recorded a good portion of "my" CD's from the 60's and 70's to take with him to college, so my musical tastes can't be all that bad.

Oops, did I just say that out loud? ;)
