Cassette from My Ex has been on my love list for a while now, a site where you can listen to old mix tapes from someone’s ex, and hear the story behind the mix courtesy of the original recipient of the tape.
I love the story behind this mix shared by writer Jancee Dunn.
How can you not love a mix tape that starts off with a random tune like “Can’t Be Seen” from the Stones?
If you’re trying to impress a girl, what better way to do it, than with a random Rolling Stones album cut off of Steel Wheels?
And “Can’t Be Seen” is one of my favorite Stones tunes from ‘Keef.
I was kind of impressed with that opening shot, Jancee wasn’t, and you have to snicker at the inclusion of “Cry Little Sister” at the end of the tape.
