This is a mix I made a few years back, but time is on my mind all of a sudden since my employer granted me a buy out. I'll have some time to goof off, but eventually I'll have to get serious and use some time to find another job when the economy could be a lot better. After more than 26 years with the same company I felt it was time for me to cash in my chips and look somewhere else for another game. I figuratively set sail on a new voyage in 2-3 months.

This is my favorite mix of yours so far, even though you didn't use my favorite two 'Time' songs, both called 'Time' in fact, one by Bowie, one by Floyd. I like this very much though!

Wow, I am really turned on by tracks 19 and 20, Fiddler on the Roof is just a genius soundtrack. Is that from the film soundtrack (far superior to the Broadway soundtrack)?
