THE VASCO ERA'S ROAD TRIP MIX TAPE
1. 'Roadrunner' – Modern Lovers:
"This is because it is about driving and liking the modern world which is hard to do, unless you are driving."
2. 'Hallogallo' – Neu!:
"It goes for 10 minutes and is a slow burner."
3. 'Like a Rolling Stone' – Bob Dylan:
"Also because it goes for a long time and I never get sick of it."
4. 'Don't Let Me Down' – E.L.O:
"Because the beat makes me awake."
5. 'Born To Run' – Bruce Springsteen:
"It is about cars and getting out of town, which I like the idea of."
6. 'Drive' – Incubus:
"For obvious reasons."
7. 'Just What I Needed' – The Cars
"This one is also pretty self explanatory."
8. 'Arm Around You' – Arthur Russel:
"Because it is my favourite song at the moment."
9. 'Senseless Apprentice' – Nirvana:
"'Cos it's a headbanger."
10. 'Astral Weeks' – Van Morrison:
"This is for the end of the drive."
From Sid.
