The Drive List

The Infamous Drive List.

By no means complete nor in any special order or formatting.

It’s a list meant to be put on shuffle because it is well over twelve hours of music and who has the mental fortitude to curate the track order on upwards of 200 songs (and counting)? So it lands in the iTunes approximation of alphabetical by artist and then whatever comes to light after typing it all into a text file. As much as I love to format everything within an inch of its life, a list this long isn’t going to be anything pretty.

The Youtube playlist. (Youtube also tells me some of the videos are no longer available, but won’t tell me which ones.)
