Playlists 52 to 73 - J to N

Found below are my latest batch of playlists listened to when I have been on my travels. This latest collection of 22 alphabetically sequenced playlists covers approximately a 2 month period and 5 different letters of the alphabet. As ever, there is an eclectic mix of mainstream and less well known artists to be found amongst the lists.

A few points of note. Playlists 68 to 70 were listened to during extended journeys during the course of trips to and from Manchester. Also, Playlist #62 which consists exclusively of songs prefixed with the word 'Love' in the title was rather appropriately listened to on a train journey on 14 February. This was not deliberate, it just so happened that these were next set of songs I came to in the alphabetical index of songs on my iPod.

Playlist #72 makes reference to the track 'Not In Love' by the Canadian electronica act Crystal Castles. Please note that the track I listened to was the album version without Robert Smith of The Cure's vocal contribution. This was not a reflection on Robert Smith's dulcet tones (as you will see from The Cure's other appearances in playlists here), but a reflection on my ineptitude in downloading the correct track! The single version which does feature The Cure frontman has now been downloaded and is a much better version than the track that appears on the 'Crystal Castles II' album.

Lastly, I should say that future updates of these playlists may be less frequent as I will commuting less in my work capacity, which is the main time when I have listened to these alphabetically sequenced playlists. Enjoy!
