ROXETTE MIXTAPE (Remastered)

Hello and Welcome Back... A Lost Tape has been revived.

A few posts back, I was writing about some Tapes and Discs i had found while looking for a album Cover... This is one of the Tapes

I made this Mixtape in the early 90s.

For me, the early 90s was a difficult / fun / scary / sad time.

My Grandfather had a series of heart attacks.

I left home for the first time and moved in with my then girlfriend.
Her name was Jodie Horne. She was a fun, exciting, gorgeous girl and i often asked myself "whats she doing with a guy like me"?..

It was around this time Roxette released their album 'Joyride' and for me, life was a joyride for a while.

Sadly it ended with said girlfriend, a mix of self doubt & trust issues. We were together for nearly 1.5 years?

After splitting with said girlfriend, i was living in my car for a while and moved once again, closer to where i was working at the time.

Found a awesome granny flat to live in..

Grandfather passed away..

As i sat in my car one afternoon, listening to this tape, tears streaming down my face, thinking how I lost my girlfriend, my Grandfather & my Family (they didn't want to talk to me at the time), I wondered what was to become of my life...

I then asked a friend to move into said granny-flat. She was to become my future wife.

Things Will Never Be The Same....

Remastering this album was difficult to say the least, not only the memories of that period in time but the recent passing of  lead singer "Marie Fredriksson"..

There were a few tears shed..

Moving on....
