Customized Playlists based on the book “We Sold Our Souls” by Grady Hendrix

As I was reading “We Sold Our Souls,” Grady Hendrix drops the names of a ton of bands and artists throughout the book. I thought it would be fun to compile them in order of appearance, and have also titled each section as to what I think they would have if we were a character present in the book and seeing it in our hands. If you disagree with any of the following, by all means, leave a comment to discuss your choices.

I added a few titles and had some liberties with some of the artists chosen, but I think it worked out quite well. But, as always, I would like to hear your suggestions as well.

Keep in mind that the music doesn’t sync with the actual book. These are just songs, artists, or songs and artists mentioned in the book. I like the choices I made and some of the liberties as well, because I felt that they were suitable for the tone of the part of the book I was reading. I don’t have a Spotify account, or I would have gladly uploaded these to it, but I chose all of this music and created the playlists thanks to my Amazon Prime Music service account (not a sponsor!).

I may do more playlists in the future for other books that I have read and reviewed, and I will load them on this site for you guys to argue about with me on my choices.
