Lol, I guess I did 1-9 instead of 1-10… I’ll add it tonight when I get back home. All 30 days are ready anyway, I just like revealing them in chunks.
Edit: done.

“If you order a Rick Ross or Macklemore CD…”
“…I would not order a Macklemore CD. That would never happen.” – Malcolm Adekanbi, avid old-school hip-hop and mixtape download fan, cutting off a music-based analogy about selling dope, Dope (directed by Rick Famuyima, 2015).
Play an album that was originally available as a mixtape download, or play/stream a mixtape download. Or play some old-school hip-hop.
The first time I ever heard the song Gin and Juice was actually a cover version, by The Gourds. A friend put it on a mix CD for me.

Drive-By Truckers – The Dirty South
"Double Digit unemployment, TVA be shutting soon
While over there in Huntsville, They puttin' people on the moon
So I took to runnin' numbers for this man I used to know
And I sell a few narcotics and I sell a little blow
I ain't getting rich now but I'm gettin' more than by
It's really tough to make a living but a man just got to try
If I died in Colbert County, Would it make the evening news?
They too busy blowin' rockets, Puttin' people on the moon"

And now I have that catch phrase from that mid-80's Oh Henry's commercial in my head. Did you guys have that commercial too or is this just a Canadian thing?

That's the one. Did you guys repeat that to each other ad-nauseum? We did.... I guess it was the old school way of having memes.

Yup back in the 70s you had to act out your own memes

Day 8 - LORAN brand tapes
Play a record housed in a tank of a sleeve. Alternatively, play a record with a beat-up sleeve. Bonus point if the pressing is average.
You need a hella heavy duty sleeve to handle 4 LPs.
Fun fact - there's a hidden 5th LP sealed in the center gatefold. For some inexplicable reason, I've never extracted it...

Kendra Smith presents the Guild of Temporal Adventurers - “The Wheel of the Law”
“i call on ships in the night to force a path for the light, open their hearts and their minds to this song. set fire to mens lives with the bonfire flames, insects throw their lives into the bonfire flames, under it you'll see this world is darkness and this floating world's a dream so burn in mad abandon and there's nothing to it at all, keep on turning the wheel of the law and i'll turn back the tides of time so you don't feel the pain, here in this citadel times keep changing day by day, dive dive into the deep blue dream, they don't feel me anymore though i'm just outside their door, they keep turning the wheel of the law and we can open the gates of the sun. i call on the ships in the night to force a path for the light. open their hearts and their minds to this song. they don't feel me anymore though i'm just outside their door, they'll keep turning the wheel of the law so we can open the gates of the sun, and there's nothing to it all, keep on turning the wheel of the law and i'll turn back the tides of time so you don't feel the pain…”

Bob Marley & The Wailers "Rastaman Vibrations" (1976 Island Records; 2022 Analogue Productions UHQR)
These massive UHQR slipcases are the first thing that came to mind when thinking of a "tank of a sleeve". No bonus points though because the pressing is phenomenal. For the mix, I'm going with Roots Rock Reggae, to continue the funk but with a reggae vibe.
1. Thundercat "Oh Sheit it's X"
2. ABC "Poison Arrow"
3. Elvis Costello "The Beat"
4. Serge Gainsbourg "Requiem Pour Un Twisteur"
5. Camp Lo "Nicky Barnes aka It's Alright"
6. Theophilus London feat. Solange and Devonté Hinds "Flying Overseas"
7. War "The Cisco Kid"
8. Bob Marley & The Wailers "Roots Rock Reggae"

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Wild God
Really struggled with this prompt. Then I pulled this record down from the “incoming” pile. The sleeve is a heavy duty beast. It is also bigger than other records by about 1/4in at the top and side (see photo). It is a Stoughton tip-on jacket but a lot of the reviews on Discogs complain how tight it is, making it difficult to slide in the album. So much so it is one of my few records that I store with the record outside the outer sleeve.
Still not sure what the overall theme of my mixtape is going to be. I know it will be 2 parts, one for each side of the TDK-90. Wild God is the song that I will include (Rape and pillage / In the retirement village)

Selling false cures is definitely not done for noble reasons. But is forgiven if you can do it to a solid beat.

V/A - You’re Not From Around Here - Buzz Clifford - “Wouldn’t It Be Nice (To Have Wings & Fly)”
Numero Group puts out a lot of me-coded product, but nothing more so than this compilation of forgotten downer surf and exotica, put forward as a soundtrack to a non-existent low budget noir and packaged inside a replica of the Goldberg canisters that we film exhibitors ship 35mm prints around in.
