About this listen

Hello I'm Mark the host of The Mixtape Podcast and every week I ask my guest to make up an imaginary Mix tape or playlist and choose 6 tracks for it. 1. Your lead off track? The attention grabber? 2. A song you sing loud and proud, when you are on your own in the car/shower. 3. You Favourite Cover Version 4. A song you would have liked your 18 year old self to hear. 5. A song to let the listener know you are romantically interested. 6. A deep cut, B Side Or Album Track, you feel is under-appreciated
