This playlist is titled Diner Tunes Vol. I. It's a little different than other playlists I've done so far. That's because I'm already certain that I'll need multiple volumes. That's not to say that there won't be other volumes of previous playlists, but while creating this playlist I had enough songs for at least three.
This is the playlist of songs you'd hear at a diner. Some might call them oldies. They might say, "but they're goodies." I am one of those people.
Things that might complement the experience: Fifty-five, Heart Attack on a Rack, Burn One and Drag it Through the Garden, also Diner Lingo

Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.
