My friend Phil and I would often go to concerts in the Bay Area. We have similar tastes in some music. We disagreed on a few things, but usually we were pretty much on the same wave length. Although he would rather listen to old Velvet Underground or Brian Eno rather than listen to new stuff if he had the choice, he was open to new music every now and again. When we drove to concerts, many times I would drive and since I had a CD player in my car, I would make a CD that had songs that I figured he would like if he heard them. Anyway one day I had tickets to see a band that he did not know (My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult). We had a drive from San Jose to the I-Beam in San Francisco and I put together this pick to play on the drive. A few bands he knew (but not these songs) and some he didn't know. I ended up naming it More Smoke, because the I-Beam show had so much smoke that you could barely see the band. I won't even talk about drunken-ness and Back Seat Betty's, but that happened.
