Best Second Albums from Artists

In our Season 2 opener (!) of our podcast, we figured it made sense to discuss the best second albums from artists — albums that either had songs that made them huge, or albums that were total (continued) perfection, or albums that are worth revisiting after so many years and appreciating.

It was a tough list to put together (all mixes are tough, aren’t they?) but we ended up with a pretty spectacular mix with one of the best opening tracks in my opinion — David Bowie’s Space Oddity.

You can listen to the episode (with music) on Spotify here, or you can listen to the original recording (no music) on any of these players.

Here’s the mix:

1. Space Oddity by David Bowie

2. Rosalita by Bruce Springsteen

4. I Can’t See Texas From Here by George Strait
