We've been quite pleased by the reaction to the soundtrack we created for The Downtown Decade; in fact, one woman said, “I just want to stay all day and listen to the music.” So for all of you who would like to recreate the experience in your own space, here is our song list, organized alphabetically by artist, and then by the names of the albums the songs were originally released on. Enjoy!
