Babys First Mix.

My little girl, 'Ava Grace' was born this afternoon, 1.04pm GMT weighing 6lb 7oz. She's just gorgeous, and I've been beaming from ear to ear all day. And here's her first mix! As you can see, it's nothing more than a collection of 'nice' songs that I hope she'll like, albeit at a reasonable volume. Hey, this fatherhood thing is already exhausting me. Upon leaving the hospital this evening, instead of heading for the pub, I got in a takeaway, submitted this mix and am now going to bed. Not very Rock and Roll I know :)

However, and this is no lie, the very second my girl was born, the radio playing in the background of the operating theatre kicked into 'Back In Black'. Now that is Rock and Roll!
