I took a look at the playlists I've created over the last several months and realized something. It would be very easy to paint me as a middle-aged guy who is stuck in the past. I'll admit that I love '70s music and because that decade was so key to the formation of my musical taste, I sometimes get bogged down in that era. Those were great years to be a music lover. But I also have a 21 year old daughter and one of the things that bond us is our love of music. She probably knows more about classic rock than your average 21 year old. She's also kept me on my toes in regard to new music. She is also a Mogger and lets me know when something new comes out that I need to hear. So what follows is a playlist that she and I created together. It consists of tracks from albums that were released between 2000 and 2010. For the most part it's music she turned me on to and that we both enjoy. The only track I included that she wanted to leave out was Johnny Cash + Joe Strummer performing "Redemption Song" a song and a performance that I just love. Hope you enjoy listening to this playlist as much as we enjoyed putting it together.
