Reggae, Funk, Soul, Jazz, Tropicalia, Trip Hop and more. I found that I was typing "upbeat" and "easy going" a lot while typing my first draft of descriptions. I think this mix is a reaction to the change in weather. Know that most tracks here are easy going, joyful, fun, upbeat and legal "uppers." Most of the tracks contain great horns.

This is a mix also made to make me feel cooler than I really be.

My wife was recommended that she add Mike n' Ike's Hot Tomales to popcorn. We tried it, and they are good together.

Your treat for putting up with my garble...
