Back in the late 80's early 90's when mix tapes were the thing I had a War Games themed mix tape. I actually still have the record which has lots of audio from the movie. Made for a great mix tape as it progressed through the whole store with musical interludes between scenes. Ahh mix tapes...sometimes I miss those days of a full 90 minute mix that you can just rinse and repeat endlessly with the auto-reverse. 😛

You are dating yourself... but I, too, fondly remember making mix tapes, especially making them for that special someone at that time. Used quite a few songs from soundtracks - Pretty in Pink, Breakfast Club, Valley Girl, The Lost Boys, Less Than Zero...

One of my other favorites from that time was the War of the Worlds. I have a vinyl reproduction of the original radio show which also made a great mix tape. I always liked the story ones. Made the songs far more relevant as you had to work to find songs appropriate for the story.

My father listened to the original radio broadcast of the War of the Worlds and would tell that story over and over.
