I initially intended for this to be one disc, but quickly realized my first draft for this theme was over three discs long. After some trimming, I ended up with one “main” disc telling the story of my music journey, and one disc of “cut for time” bonus tracks that I have less of a personal connection to - even if many are actually better songs to recommend to other people. (Extended descriptions for each track with the photos below - originally printed on dual-sided paper and included in the box with the disc)
