Some big news on the playlist front. While you can still find the song lists for 2008-2018, we’ve taken down the mp3s themselves. BUT, thanks to the hard work of intern extraordinaire Charlie Meyer, there is now a Mockingbird Masterlist on Spotify, which contains all those songs, plus this year’s additions (about 2100 total)–basically a Mockingbird radio station! Click here to follow that list.

You can find (most of) the above on Spotify as well.

Click here to listen (to most of it) on Spotify. Likely going to be moving these there exclusively in the next couple months, fyi.

You can listen on Spotify here. Oh and fans of the first track would do well to check out the new episode of The Well of Sound which is all about Tina Turner.

P.S. Click here to listen to (the majority of) it on Spotify.

P.P.S. Happy #Seculosity Eve! Both Amazon and Barnes & Noble have it discounted by almost 30%, and only an algorithm knows how long that will last, so…

You can jam on most of the tracks on Spotify here. And for those inspired by the above to geek out on Thin Lizzy, look no further.
