my first crack at a Nick Hornbyesque list

U2: Stuck in a Moment
Jeff Buckley: Haleluah
Bob Dylan: Every Grain of Sand
Johnny Cash: Hurt
The Band: The Weight
Bruce Springsteen: Promised Land
The Beach Boys: Sloop John B
Ben Harper: Like a King
Beck: Where it’s At
Nickel Creek: Doubting Thomas
Wilco: Shot in the Arm
Billy Joel: Lenningrad
Coldplay: Everything’s Not Lost
Death Cab for Cutie: I Will Follow you into the Dark
Fugees: Killing me Softly
Grateful Dead: Uncle John’s Band
Neil Young: Helpless
Jimmy Buffet: He Went to Paris
John Francis: Susquehanna Sleepwalk
Led Zeppelin: Over the Falls and Far Away
Josh Ritter: Girl in the War
Ryan Adams: Sky Turns Blue
Marvin Gaye: What’s Going On?
Over the Rhine: Jesus in New Orleans
Phish: Waste
R.E.M.: Everybody Hurts
Radiohead: Everything in its Right Place
Simon & Garfunkel: Bridge over Troubled Waters
Talking Heads: Once in a Lifetime
Van Morrison: Caravan
Tom Petty: Yer So Bad


I limitde myself to one song per artist so as Dylan, Bruce, and Cash didn't completely dominate. Everyone should now work on their own it's a very enjoyable process
