I started making mix CDs for my grandma on her birthday. The first one had Perry Como every other track, and some traditional Irish folk songs, and some Tony Bennett. But she asked for more music, and I thought I'd get her up to speed on what the kids are into these days. Maybe if the progression is gentle, she'll listen to the Clash without even realizing it.
