Tod Goldberg creates and discusses a music playlist, streamable on Spotify, for his novel Gangsterland at Largehearted Boy. As a teen, I was something of an inveterate mix-tape maker. If you were dating me between 1984-1990, you might still be in possession of one of these tapes and might still have questions concerning why I found so many songs obviously about killing yourself romantic, but you must understand that I didnt know The Ledge by the Replacements wasnt about, you know, diving headlong into love, that it wasnt a metaphor for anything. Also, Im sorry for making all of the B-sides a continuous loop of I Melt With You. I recognize that might have seemed a tad obsessive.
