Rock and Roll Playlist

Order Description
The playlist should contain approximately 45 minutes worth of music (approximately 12 songs). Your song selections can be from artists related to any one or all of the units you’ve chosen to complete for weeks 12-14, including modern artists and/or artists that we haven’t studied in class, in which case you will need to explain how the selections are related to the units you’ve studied. Likewise, if you choose, feel free to use songs and artists that we have studied in class. Your playlist can be a mix of both (old and new for example) as well.

Give your playlist a theme that will tie your selections together. Explain your song choices. Write specifically about what you would talk about on the radio show or podcast in between songs.

This should take up roughly one page typed, double-spaced, using a 12 pt font
