Hey folks, my sisters are going on a road next week and want me to make them some cds for them. so i was hoping i could get some help suggestions. i remember how awesome yall were with suggestions in the past. If perhaps you have a playlist or whatnot you've enjoyed on the road. Or perhaps a fellow ladies perspective. Anyway they their births range roughly from mod 70's to mid 80's, to give you an idea of their age.
Thanks for the help ahead of time.

I think they would enjoy the entirety of Nail by Scraping Foetus Off the Wheel. It's definitely aimed at girls and is from the mid 80s.

This. It even has a road map on the cover.

I'm afraid when it comes to 80s I'ma slave to pop. Could only suggest things like Then jerico's Big Area and the like... and nobody wants to see that!

That's perfectly fine. It doesnt need to be from the 80's. Heck, it could be from 1917. looking good so far, thanks a bunch.

Oh sorry, Imisread your post in haste, I thought you meant their tastes were 80s! Doh.
I'll have a think.
