As you can see from the playlist, each song title shares a word or two with the following song title. I got the idea from a show on Diversity FM by a presenter called Janet though I think there was more to her show than this simple sort of link. If memory serves me right she would link up the first and last track on each show which was pretty impressive. But the good thing about this approach is that lets me select tracks which I might not have otherwise thought of and I can stray off the folk \ singer-songwriter genres that I normally feature. So this is perhaps more what a show called Off The Beaten Tracks should really be about. And it makes it more interesting for me as well!
