Music

From angst-ridden rockers to dreamy boy bands, your brand-new favorite song was only as far away as your local Sam Goody or Tower Records. Portable CD players made porting your tunes with you easier than ever, whether it was the new Lauryn Hill record or something a little folksier like the Counting Crows. Today, you don’t even need to wait for your local radio to cycle through the same 20 songs in order to hear your favorite ‘90s jams.
