Here's the second part of the 80's collection, covering roughly from 1986 to early 1989.
(track listings are in comments)
81 Honda Civic ('86-89; named after the car that I was given permission to drive by my mother after I turned 16. This is mostly pop music with some club/dance that was played mostly on Q104)
John Lander's Hit Music USA ('87-88; named after a syndicated show that aired on Saturday nights on Q104)
Camelot Music ('87-89; stuff that wasn't played on the radio but was discovered when the best record store of my youth (before the arrival of Slip Disc in Saks) came to Gadsden Mall. A great hodge-podge of things)
R.I.P. Christy C. ('85-'88; the most personal of this collection. In tribute to a girl that I held a debilitating crush for about 3 years. The music in this file is still hard for me to listen to at times, although after I wrote her a letter telling her how much I liked her, the love-sickness died away. She was always dating someone else, anyway, and by the time I got around to writing her (I was too chicken-shit to tell here face-to-face), she was practically engaged to the man that she would stay married to until her untimely passing in a car accident a couple of years back. So, this is my Ultimate Mix-Tape to Christy)
Enjoy!
