I would like to do the Choose Your Own Adventure as a cooperative thing. Maybe as a relay - One person sets an opening scene and offer the different "paths", including the song that will come with that path. We vote which way to go, then someone else write the next scene and the new available paths/songs to add to the mix, and so on until we have a mix.

It is time for a new Potpourri contest, but here are a few more crap ideas.
1. Negativity Mix. A mixtape for someone who would be a foe of yours if they were on MTC. Could be a minor or major celeb (Sal could have Mark E Smith for instance) someone you know personally, a hated historical figure, a hated fictional character, anyone, just as long as you rip them to shreds with your mixtaping prowess and let everyone know why he/she does NOT float your boat.
2. A Wedarriffic Mix. Take two people (see categories in last idea), marry them off to each other and create a mixtape to be played at the wedding.
3. Music your Grandkids will need to know about.
That's it

I, like johnny_luddite, was born in the mid '50s, for me in 1955. The '50s prior to 1956 is not one of my favorite periods musically, but Frank Sinatra had an LP in that year called "In the Wee Small Hours", and I can dig a little Sinatra, especially in the wee small hours. I also think that he was at his best in the late '40s through 1955.

Good luck, Sal.
An idea I had the other day for a mix contest - reSoundtrack a day of your life to improve/alter/direct it in some way. (In honor of some great/pretty good movies, I'm giving a 24 hour time limit. So, this could be graduation day in Texas, 1976, or friggin' Rex Manning day. It's up to you.)

Sal, there is no need to explain YOUR choice. Everyone should own that album.
Galaxiepi, I wanted to choose thriller but then i found out it actually came out in 1982. But the first time it hit #1 was THE DAY I WAS BORN. So yeah, Thriller beats all, no matter what we are talking about as far as Im concerned.

I forgot to mention why Exile... is my favorite album of 1972. It's because back then, Rolling Stones weren't old folks living on past laurels. They were making music with testicles. Not that I'm that into testicles, but you know... And well, it's just one of the best albums in the history of rock. And I was never that into Ziggy Stardust anyway.

The year I was born (1957) the only musical genre to take albums seriously was jazz, and I do love 'Miles Ahead' by Miles Davis from that year. However, it has to be something from Chess records for me. Although they released loads of good blues that year, most of it was on 45. In fact they only released 4 albums, and out of them, two were greatest hits compilations. That leaves us with Bo Diddley's first album, and the one I have chosen as my favorite, After School Session by Chuck Berry. This album showed far more versatility than his hit singles alone do. As well as Berry rock and roll classics like Mabelline, Too Much Monkey Business and No Money Down there is a wonderful slow blues, In the Wee Wee Hours and a latin tinged song, Havana Moon. His lyrics are sharp witty and every now and then mean spirited which I see as a good thing. I'll stop now.
