I almost forgot I made this

Take it!

Flower Child's Special Concoction Download

If they don't show up in this order, make sure you put them in this order. Its how I designed it. If at all possible, I would suggest listening to it while driving or traveling some way or another

1. Lonesome, On'ry, and Mean - Waylon Jennings
I think this makes a good first track because of its excellent and classic outlaw intro and Waylon booming voice singing out "On a greyhound bus, lord I'm travelin' this morning..." Gets the energy flowing, amps up anticipation, and makes for a perfect warmup for the rest of the mix tape.

2. Hearts Against The Wind - Linda Ronstadt and JD Souther
On the other hand, this song is very calm and drifty, complete with a beautiful mandolin intro.

3. Train, Train - Blackfoot
Interesting band. Almost all of the members are Native Americans. The harmonica solo at the beginning of this song is one of the best solos I've ever heard. Strong southern rock, with a stark resemblance to Lynyrd Skynyrd's style. Love the masculine voice of Rickey Medocke.

4. Funny How Time Slips Away - Willie Nelson
"Well hello there...my its been a long, long time...." You just can't beat the brilliance of Willie Nelson song writing. I find this track gives a nice variation if tempo for the tape.

5. Don't The Girls All Get Prettier At Closing Time - Mickey Gilley
Thought I would throw in this rather low class light-hearted jumpy tune to get things moving again. That old bar room piano is great.

6. Can't You See - Marshall Tucker Band
One of my absolute favorites. Southern rock at its finest. The collaboration of the instruments in this song is immense.

7. Heaven and Hell - Waylon Jennings
A perfect song to end on. Simple chords, simple lyrics, simple vocals, time is 1:41 - yet the genuineness and truth expressed is pure gold.

Its not ten tracks but I don't want it going to waste.
