The traditional mix disc from my daughter reflecting whatever she is listening to arrived for me at our designated Father's Day celebration last night. We had dinner at
Loló
on 22nd between Mission and Bartlett. Most vivid among my memories is the octopus carpaccio under multicolored drizzles.
This new disc is called Diana in honor of the lomo camera given to me as a Christmas gift. As usual, I have no information about where the music comes from or who performs it. I am to report back on what I do or do not figure out on my own. So here is my attempt to account for the 19 tracks on Diana.
