The Russ Anderson Mixtape

The Russ Anderson Mixtape is the fifth studio album by Jacob Keplinger and the final album released through Mesa Dog Records.

The album was recorded in a single day, as a bet between Keplinger and Justin Siegel regarding whether or not Keplinger could record an entire studio album while Siegel was at work. Keplinger was not entirely finished when Siegel returned, and the two of them (along with Robby Angelotti) completed the final track, "The Camping Song."

The album was removed from stores in May 2018, when Pink Hat Records absorbed Mesa Dog Records' catalog, and is currently in the Pink Hat Archive.
