Happy Father’s Day, Dad – Flashback to 2005 Music Mix

Back in 2005 I gave my dad a music mix CD for Father’s Day. I don’t know whether he really listened to it much. It was 16 tracks of music I liked that I also thought he’d enjoy.

I’ve recreated the song list below on a Spotify playlist and a YouTube playlist. Unfortunately a lot of the songs (9 of the 16) are not available online as far as I’ve been able to find.

 

I miss you Dad. Thinking of you – always.
