Those fool-proof gift CDs

No, I'm not talking about the completely boring hip adult music you'd find in Banana Republic or Caribou Coffee like Bebel Gilberto or some remixed soul music. I am talking about those albums or compilations that you personally love and like to share with your loved ones; albums that would be appreaciated by your young cousins and your older aunts and uncles; albums that remind you of holidays past, driving to Grandma and Grandpa's, big spaces and conversations; albums that remind you of where you came from.

    mix cds are always best. it's when you've listened to so much music that you almost have a mental library of song feelings that you can apply to the mentality of the person you are making the mix cd, then you've found a new language. hey, i like how that sounds, i'l write it down.

    but its truth, cause it means a lot of consideration went into the gift, you're giving them 20 gifts in one box (if you have 20 tracks on it)



    my point is, id rather make a compilation cd then really getting someone an album.

    World Psychedelic Classics 3, if they have this already they probably talked your ear off about how amazing this compalation is.

    I like this idea, too, especially if it's packaged in an artsy sleeve.
