Twofer



The car I drove in high school had a...wait for it...eight track tape player. So the first thing I did was buy an adaptor for regular cassettes. Back then I was big into mix tapes and compilations. And taping off my friends. I don't even remember how I came by this tape, but it had the Talking Heads "Little Creatures" on one side and "Stop Making Sense" on the other side. I just about wore that tape out. I mean it was the only tape in the car for months. Back then I was a Rolling-Stone-reading Independent who was going to college to study International Relations, specializing in Russian. Sigh. High schoolers don't know anything ;)

Anyway, these albums are so familiar they fit like an old pair of shoes.
