Hey, folks, the new Summer Mix will be out later this week. Until then, we'll be featuring a few tracks.
Actually, Mags unknowingly kicked us off yesterday, but for today, here's your opener.

Let's see how many days I can go playing songs from Guardians 2 before I get sick of them. I might be at one day.
Because bears are cool. In Vancouver. 2007.
Note: If you've done this topic before, well, sorry. But it was the best one I could come up with.
If you've followed Jeff A week, you've noticed that the songs are all oldies, mostly from the '70s. The reason for that, of course, is that the '70s are the time I was growing up. All of my high school and a good share of my college years came in the '70s.
I think for most of us, the music of our youth holds a special place in our hearts. It's not so much that the music of our youth is better than any other kind of music (although in my case, it clearly is). It's that this is the music that was playing during the years when we were becoming the people we were going to become. Hearing that music takes us back to that time, and usually back to happy memories. It even does that for those of us for whom the high school years do not have that many happy memories. Maybe it's because the music was a kind of refuge, a place where we could go to forget the way things were and think about how things might be better for us someday.
I don't just listen to these oldies. I listen to some contemporary pop music and some contemporary country music. I listen to some contemporary Christian music, too. But my go-to music is still the music of the '70s. It's where I go when I want some music to put me in a good mood, or music I can sing along to. The music of my youth.
So, what's your go-to music? What's the music that puts you in a good mood? What's the music of your youth? Put it here. Or, put in a random ten list. Or, do whatever you want. I'm not the boss of you.
