Despite a balky new set of chronal software and some intense temporal drift, our journey back to 1995 was successful and we were able to once again look at the Oklahoma City bombing, the deadly Chicago heat wave and the stunning return of Michael Jordan to basketball. We put things in financial perspective (adjusted for inflation, of course) and mostly rocked out to long sets of songs from the year: a mesmering blend of pop, alternative rock, jam bands and uncorrelated sound. Here's the playlist:
