last week, the pitchfork staff compiled their top 200 songs of the 60’s — ridiculous in typical pitchfork fashion because they actually rank them from #200 to #1, and because, as an associate reminded me, the list was drawn up by 21 year olds.
regardless, there are some amazing moments included in the feature, and i wished pitchfork had the nuts to post the mp3s for these. and then, blogsarefordogs.com to the rescue! thanks guys, you’ve just helped us all round out our itunes and try to reach the coolness level of the pitchfork gang.
download all 200 songs quick, before the links expire.
hard to pick a personal fave, but it might be serge gainsbourg: bonnie and clyde

Great link!
most Pitchfork writers are in their mid-20s to early 30s. I think there is one college-age kid on staff.
p.s. we couldn’t post mp3s because, y’know, we’d get sued.
this one seems to be cleaner and easier to download from (although on one of them I had to try twice for a free “slot” to get it–it seems to work best if you click the link immediately after the 60 second wait period).

maybe someone will make a torrent file for this?
Great link guys but how come they didn’t put even just ONE Doors song on the list?
