Continuing on with the Music Listography refresh, we come to one of my favorite “music lists” from the book. As I mentioned in the first refresh list, favorites evolve over time. Some change, others stay on for the long haul. I do hope that you play along, and if you do, that you share your lists in the comment section, or put a Listography list on your own blog and/or social media.
I will include playlist links for Spotify and YouTube, as well as an in-post YouTube playlist, so you can press play and spin all 20 if you’d like.
Though I will be following the book from each list to the next, my answers will not reflect a particular order. I am such a music obsessive that it will be challenging enough to stick to things like “top 20“, much less try to decide whose #1, or #13, that’s just too cruel. So, without further ado, here we go with list #2.
