Do you want more upbeat or more slow songs, OP? Preference?

You are thinking of Don McLean.
My list includes Elton John, early Billy Joel, America, Chicago, agree with Kansas and Neil Diamond.
A sampling of good songs:
Elton John: Your Song, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Philadelphia Freedom, Candle in the Wind
Billy Joel: Piano Man, Scenes from an Italian Restaurant, Honesty, Only the Good Die Young
America: Horse With No Name, Ventura Highway, Magic, Tin Man
Chicago: Hard for Me to Say I'm Sorry, Saturday in the Park, 25 or 6 to 4

At a minimum, the person making it has to have a clear idea of the actual songs that the receiver would like. The songs have meaning. They're connected in some way.*
There are so many genres of music from any time period. You should already know what your friend would want to hear if you are going to make a "tape" or cd. If you have to ask for suggestions, then it's not the right gift. I don't mean to be rude. Just being realistic.
*For a more complete explanation of this, watch a great movie with John Cusack called "High Fidelity."
