Last year at about this time I made a mix CD for Little Boy Blue's birthday. Since Little Boy Blue recently had another birthday party, I went back and made another mix CD for the guests (and him). I gather last year's was popular -- one of the return attendees said that last year's mix saved them during their vacation road trip. (And it was popular with Little Boy Blue, too.) Anyway, here's this year's result, with some YouTubery to help you play along at home.
