Mix: Oh, Classic Me

This started out as a dad rock mix - a would-be angry response to all the negative hype around the would-be genre. Then I turned it into a tribute to my older brothers, who are both dads, and who have hipped me to some great and rather dad-ish rock over the years. Then I realized that I am, of course, a dad myself, as well as an older brother. At that point I realized this is just a mix about me. Classic me. Alternate titles include, “Minivan Sensei,” and “Music for the Cabin Down Below.” I think you get the picture.

1. My Baby Gives It Away - Pete Townshend
2. The Brides Have Hit Glass - GBV
3. Reelin’ In The Years - Steely Dan
