I wouldn't make the mix-tape move until at least 2 months of steady dating.
Although, thinking back, the woman I wound-up marrying was probably the *only*
girl I ever dated for whom I did *not* make a mix tape, yet she's the most
musically open-minded and best dancer of the bunch.

I ease them in with Luna - so much so that when my future wife first heard the
1992 Television LP, she said, "This sounds like Luna." (She also said the same
thing when she heard the Kinks' doing "Set Me Free" on TO THE BONE).
