Rolling Stone - The Playlist Special (vol. 2)

What:

In the Rolling Stone's The Playlist Issue 55 artists shared their personal favorite songs from other artists or genres. As you can see in the cover pictured above, U2's Bono picked on David Bowie, Arcade Fire's Win Butler on the Boss, Yoko Ono on John Lennon, Dave Grohl on punk and so on. Last month I started spotifyin' these playlists. You can find first eleven playlists right here. Now it's a time for the second round. With some great mixtapes (my personal favourites are Win Butler's Bruce Springsteen top14, Gerard Way's best of glam rock and Robbie Robertson's trip to New Orleans, but I can say I like all of them). In some cases, in the original Rolling Stones webpages you'll find infos and motivations for each pick. Finally, at the bottom there's a mammoth featuring all playlists from round 1 and round 2. Enjoy!

Stay in touch with the new playlists!
