I really like what you did here. Will be listening on my commute this evening.
ReplyDeleteOn a related note, I accidentally added the playlist for "About Night of Hunters" instead of the actual album "Night of Hunters." Apparently, this is a description/narration of what is going on in each particular song. I'm not sure I've ever heard anything quite so bizarre...
Give it a listen:

:( Not available in the US.
ReplyDeleteI tested with a US account, all tracks are available.
ReplyDeleteWas working on such a list myself, when I realized that someone must have had the same idea :)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot!
Thanks, I was just about to start searching the original versions from Spotify but google led me here.
ReplyDeleteThis is so great. Thanks for putting it together! I can go and explore all the originals and their composers now.
