My car CD changer (a Deezer playlist I add/remove albums to) currently has
No Hard Feelings - The Beeches, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess - Chappell Roan, The Make it All Show - Skating Polly, Film Noir - Faouzia, Streetwise - Pretty Sick, Woman of Faces - Celeste, Lux - Rosalía, Dummy - Portishead, From the Pyre - The Last Dinner Party
I think I'm gonna swap out Pretty Sick for some Beatles (Helter Skelter came on Flow and reminded me they exist). Probably swap Faouzia for something, I saw Mary Middlefield in New Release, so probably that. Poppy is in New Releases too, isn't she with Evanescence touring, so I'll give that a go. I thought about Full Moon Fever - Tom Petty, but I just didn't love it like I used to. The CD changer is due a refresh.
I found a "Every UK #1 1952-2021" playlist. I might copy it, tidy it up, remove the Xmas singles and have that as a car playlist for a bit.
Oh I miss them. Under the seat? I’ve seen them on eBay recently.
Or in the boot.
I just fake it with a Playlist these days. Add 5-10 albums to a playlist and swap albums out as and when. I do miss the 'skip album' button though, press that enough and you knew that CD needed pulling for something else. Now I'm furiously skipping tracks one at a time to get to the next 'CD', which encourages me to change that album faster, but is distracting while driving.
