MINI tracks 1
What I think is a pretty rare CD; I couldn’t find reference to it online anywhere …

It arrived sealed, with no info on the cover about what it contains!

So I had to open it, revealing five tracks:

The tracks are all somewhat electro-funk-jazz:
Don’t Hesitate by Hill & Funes
Stars by Turntablerocker
Step into the gallery (MINI version) by Micatone
Espuma (Aha, Aha) (progressive short mix) by Espuma
Return of the prodigal son by George Benson
Espuma is one of my favourite tracks to play loud while driving twisties in the MINI
– there’s a slightly different YouTube version here (I also found Micatone here
I’ve no idea what this CD was for; perhaps background music in European dealerships (the couple of music CDs I have from US dealerships are very different content!) … I wonder if there was ever a “MINI tracks 2″?

Boy, some a bit to euro disco for me but still a kool find for you.
