The spark for this mix was the very first track on the list. One day I was going through music files on my computer. I was doing some file clean up and I came across a folder with Alan Hackshaw and that Dave Allen At Large theme. I loved Dave Allen At Large as a kid and thought I should give that a listen. I couldn't remember how that music went. So I clicked on the track and it literally made my day, because the track was one that I had been hearing for the past couple years and wished I knew what it was. The Pure Cinema podcast uses that track for their New Beverly calendar episodes and actually had thought several times about tracking down that opening music. Little did I know that I had the track and that it was actually to a show I watched growing up. So I wanted to put that song on a mix so that I could have a reason to listen to it more often. So I started with that track and the just built from there. I listened to all sorts of tracks that I had been throwing into a folder for possible use on one of these mixes. So there are songs from my 1001 albums challenge. There are songs from records I've digitized in the past year or so. There are country songs that I came across listening to the Cocaine and Rhinestones podcast or the Ken Burns' Country Music documentary series. There are also just tracks that I came across just in my normal random listening habits. All that is to say that it is my usual eclectic mix of genres and time periods, with a main goal of kind of working together.
Enjoy!
