Every month RW/FF brings you a playlist of the greatest tracks from 20 years ago. In addition to these monthly playlist comes this collection of tracks. As we prepare to start revisiting 1999's musical gems, now seems like a good time to tie up all the loose odds and ends from 1998, tracks not featured yet in the monthly playlists. So here is a 12th volume of the year's best tracks, featuring album cuts and songs we haven't had time to squeeze in.
Every month I revisit the music that we were listening to 20 years ago, and compile them into a YouTube playlist for your viewing and listening pleasure. Ideal for nostalgic journeys and reliving your youth, or maybe you're discovering these tracks for the first time.
You can stream the playlist in full below. If you enjoy any of the songs featured here, we encourage you to support the artists by purchasing their music from your local record shop, or through online retailers.
Stream the playlist below, and read a tracklist further down this page.
