In 1995, Rhino released 5 volumes in their Radio Daze compilation series, which featured soft rock singles from the years 1979-81. Inspired by posts about that series over at
The CD Project, my buddy Herc put together playlists to make up an additional eleven volumes. I've agreed to break down those playlists track-by-track in a style similar to the one I followed for Rhino's original 5 volumes. The second in that series of contributions is now available over at Herc's Hideaway. Here are the 12 tracks Herc selected for Volume 6, covering the months July - October, 1981, which would have included the first months of my sophomore year in high school:
