My Hundred Best Tunes - June 2005

As before, these tracks are in random order (I had enough trouble picking some of them, don't expect me to rank them as well).

As is also par for the course, some of the entries have hyperlinks to take to a website relevant to the artist.

(I decided that maintaining the links was too time-consuming, and so have ditched them. Try your search-engine of choice instead).
