description:
A small and humble tribute to one of the most incredible and influential record labels to have ever existed. I tried to choose not only the songs that first come to mind when I think of the many bands who were involved with the Sarah experience, but also the songs that best seem to capture and eventually define each group from that period. Tracks are ordered by release catalogue numbers.
This is my first mixtape on this site, and I wanted to pick something that would be challenging yet enjoyable. I know it may seem as though it's "just a playlist," -- but until you try to cut down the entire Sarah discography into 80 minutes of pure pop bliss, you can't imagine how difficult it is. Also, I know I left out Northern Picture Library and some other notable bands.. there wasn't enough room. Just pretend they are there in spirit.
If anyone would like this mix, let me know.

The Friday the 13th Badge I
Friday the 13th taught us all the heartwarming lesson that if you are a camp counselor, it's probably not in your best interest to let that (potentially mentally retarded [see wikipedia]) kid swim alone while you are trying to get a piece of ass.
