Sigh Sometimes I miss those days. Making mix tapes took effort and meant something and people actually LISTENED the stuff they unearthed instead of just storing a hundred million mp3s on their hard drives. The "Technical Data" on the Exotic Trilogy liner notes is brilliant--I'll be cracking up tomorrow from that.

Just like there used to be Tiki collecting without e-bay :) !? This was classic Vinyl archeology, unearthing castaway items from the forgotten jetsam and flotsam of consumer culture, and imbuing them with new meaning by putting them into a new context. It was what they used to call an "Underground" activity. The tools have changed, and now it has become not really an "Overground", but maybe one of many "Paralellgrounds"?
