Disc 16 / 48

To the extent that the Timothology was talked about by people other than me, I think the theme discs dominated the conversations. But something like two-thirds of the discs are just long mixes of pop music that I thought sounded good in the order I set down. Sometimes it leads to some weird bedfellows; I know that it felt significant that Buddy Holly and Motorhead were on the same CD. Or, this time around, Hanson and Andrew W.K. (who wrote "The McLaughlin Groove" using only phrases he heard on an episode of The McLaughlin Group).

This disc marks the point where the project is one-third done. Twice as far to go before it is finished. Anyone that thinks listening to this much music is a chore ought to try burning that many discs without repeating a track by accident.
