I have been irrationally hanging on to our Cities Sampler Vol. 4 cassette, even though we haven't had a device that could play it for years.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?
Streetlights was Bonnie Raitt's 4th album, and the first time she recorded John Prine's "Angel From Montgomery."
