this mix is as literal as it sounds. my parents own an antique shop in downtown glen ellyn, and occasionally i work there. almost no one ever comes in, so it gets pretty boring. today i smoked pot in the storage closet in the back, and then proceeded to make this mix of all the songs i wanted to hear at the exact moment. i was very calm and peaceful, it was nice.

| 10 | American Football : The One With The Wurlitzer |
|
whoever put a song called "the one with the tambourine" in the database was very misinformed, because there is no such song. "the one with the wurlitzer", however, IS a real song, and a very good one at that. this whole album always reminds me of a really good three weeks of my life, so whenever i need to cheer up, i pick a track from this album to listen to.

I rated this mix before but apparently I didn't realize how much it kicked ass cause I only gave it 3 points or something. Redo, and full points!

Great mixtape. Wonderful Bjork choice. I had Ralph McTell albums at one point! As well as the self composed folkie stuff he also used to do a nice line in finger picking blues and guitar rags as I recall. Seek Out some early John Martyn (a contemporary of McTell's but more jazzy and spacey) for the next time pot and antique store collide.

Gotta find the Ralph McTell track. I would be afraid to get stoned in an antique shop. Too much history.

Ralph McTell was a semi famous english folkie in the sixties and seventies, Street of London was probably his most famous trackand I always found it sad When I was younger he used to be on a kids TV show, doing songs.

If I'm not wrong there really is a song by American Football that's called "The One With the Tambourine," on their EP, but that doesn't matter, this is a great mix.
