When you’ve got a 60s playlist on repeat

This week, we spin back to the 1960s for a special countdown episode, ranking our favorite tracks from a decade that practically invented cool. From the soul-stirring power of Aretha Franklin to the raw, bluesy energy of Janis Joplin, we break down how these songs still hit just as hard today. We also dive into the rock ‘n’ roll dominance of The Beatles and the swagger-filled sound of The Rolling Stones. Along the way, we explore how soul, blues, and rock ‘n’ roll blended into unforgettable tracks—many of which became staples in our favorite movie soundtracks. And yes, we make the case that a perfectly crafted playlist might just be better (and cheaper) than therapy… especially when it comes with a countdown of absolute classics.
