Peeking into the full playlist (currently at exactly 1000 videos), I can't help but notice the complete lack of old blues and country music from the list. One reason I'm a big fan of Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music is it demonstrates a time when the line between country music, the blues, folk songs, and even jazz or gospel (okay, jazz was already a bit different from the rest at this point) were a lot more permeable than one would have expected. In essence, it's the primordial ooze containing the common ancestors from which all the popular music we listen to today comes from, and I'm legitimately surprised that there's nothing of that primordial ooze in this playlist documenting the evolution of music. Not even a token Robert Johnson or Carter Family track.
