Music is an important part of the rhythm of work.  Where once there were drum beats propelling ships across oceans, and workers songs propelling mean and women across fields, there are now stereos playing eighties classics radio in offices, and rows of headphone-clad desk jockeys.

This is a playlist for the knowledge-reaper, the concept-wrangler, the strategy-smith.  A concentrated soundtrack to your own daily heroic battle.  Refrains and themes, jeopardy and hazard, contemplation and doubt, belief and purpose.  Cue the strings, and get things done.
