Sean Witzman, aka Trip Maker, is the host of Holy Victrola, a radio show broadcasting to central Missouri on public radio affiliate KOPN 89.5 FM every Thursday from 3 to 5 PM. One of his favorite weekend activities, when he's away from his day job at the library, is making 90 minute mix tapes for his friends. After making a rap/soul/groove tape for a friend, Sean was approached by Channing Kennedy of Cat Jams and asked to put together some mixes for his vanity label, Cat Jams Label.

The second mix Sean made was this "Motorcycledelia" collection. This genre is most definitively represented by the first song on the tracklist, Hawkwind's "Silver Machine". This genre is characterized by fast, consistent tempos, loud guitar, heavy bass, and lyrics about travel and/or machinery, or sex and drugs.

This mix was released as a limited run of 15 cassettes with standard liner/case packaging. The inside tracklisting is a needlessly accurate reproduction of Sean's original handwriting-on-blank-tape-insert tracklisting.

The tracks present on these mixes are out of print, hard/impossible to find, and for entertainment purposes only, and are categorically not intended to impede on anyone's royalties. If you dig the tunes, support the artists or their remaining relatives, natch. Contact Channing with beefs and he will graciously accommodate you.
