On our roadtrip to New Orleans, I tossed my laptop in the car and burned Matt some mixes as he cruised us towards Louisiana. I rifled through my Itunes, trying to conjure up a mixture of stuff that would keep us entertained and take Annie's mind off Jack's Big Music Show, Laurie Berkner and all things Winnie-the-Pooh.
Lo and behold, my kid is now really into the B-52s and Bob Marley. A girl can only take so much Love Shack, so I made a new mix for the car- that will continue their musical education and kick off Summer 2008. What's on your summer playlist? Here's mine:
Soak up the Sun- Sheryl Crow

Jump- Van Halen
Footloose- Kenny Loggins
California Girls- Beach Boys

For when the sun starts to go down it's "California Stars" by Wilco.
Gosh, I haven't made a mix cd in a long, long time! I'm gonna have to do that.
