I know me and mine would "scratch this itch" by creating a mixtape, and the generation after me would burn a CD, and then the next group would fill up an MP3 player, and nowadays kids will build a playlist ... but what did you all do when you wanted to commemorate an event or to spread the word about under-the-radar music to which you were listening or to memorialize someone who has passed or to woo a potential partner (all themes of mixtapes in my massive cassette collection [thanks again Columbia House/BMG and your 13 cassettes for a penny deals of my college years!], many of which I'm considering featuring as part of my weekly random tunes for Tuesday [after the P Jam Jam has ended, of course])?
To be clear, I don't have any eight tracks ... and I've no motivation to make a mixtape right now ... I'm really just curious.
