Miss Mad Men? There’s Now an Album

One of the great things about premium TV these days is how so much care is devoted to picking exactly the right music for the shows. Anyone who watched The Sopranos, True Blood or Breaking Bad knows what I mean. I’d also put Mad Men in this category.  Without carefully curated song selections, the show just wouldn’t have had the same impact.

There’s now a compilation of some of the key songs used in the series. Here’s the tracklisting. If you were a fan, you can probably guess what the last song is.
