Mercifully, the 2016 presidential campaign is coming to an end. As a not-so-fond farewell, I compiled a playlist of sixteen of the greatest political rock songs. They're presented in no particular order. It was difficult enough limiting myself to just one tune each by Dylan, the Clash and Springsteen. Ranking the songs is beyond my abilities. As always, I welcome your feedback. What are the unforgivable omissions?
