Primal Scream, Grateful Dead and Van Morrison lead the call for atonement and renewal
Here is this week’s playlist – songs picked by a reader from hundreds of suggestions on last week’s callout. Thanks for taking part. Read more about how our weekly series works at the end of the piece.
Redemption is a common theme in religion, though my idea for this topic was shaped more by movies and TV shows: I mentioned a favourite, My Name Is Earl, in the callout. The idea that one can attempt to balance past misdeeds and mistakes through acts of benevolence, charity, kindness and compassion is central. But it’s also about Movin’ On Up, and getting out of the darkness – as Primal Scream explain in their signature song, which starts the playlist this week.
