A while back, my favorite sister gave me a list of song that she wanted me to burn for her. They were songs she had on cassette tapes, but since no one uses those anymore, she needed an updated method of listening to her favorite songs from the 80's. I found this piece of paper and read her list -- what a bunch of great songs! I spent a good part of yesterday downloading these songs and arranging them into an order I liked. I have made a three disk series of some of the best tunes from the 80's, and I just wanted to share it with you!
