It's late at night and it's getting mighty crowded in the bar and on the dance floor. The mix starts off with Elvis Costello covering a Betty Everett song from 1964 and then gets going through a set of 80's New Wave. This mix is based on sets of songs I played at the Pastime Lounge during those years.
Some of these songs got a little overplayed at the time but I guess you had to be there. Kids in America indeed.
