While traveling around for The Light Nearby I listened to so many songs – some being new, some being old. When I was in each area there were numerous songs that I discovered that somehow many my journey that much more amazing.
What I usually do is listen to CDs when I drive because I don’t want to hook up my iPhone/iPod if I’m just driving 5 minutes down the street. Therefore, I make CD Mixes that fill up the full space of a CD (A Blank CD can record 80 minutes maximum). For each city I went to I made a CD Mix with all the songs that I listened to and got influenced by that area. Here’s all the CD Mixes I created while was traveling around – each one containing hugely influential songs for that area and time period.
