Ian Hunter, or, Why Does YouTube Annoy Me?

SONGS

 ARTISTS

ALBUMS

Do you notice a pattern here? And, understand why YouTube annoys me. The algorithm is supposed to find music you like and when an algorithm is applied to my surfing it takes me away from what I want to hear. Unless I'm doing research for a podcast episode when listening to YouTube I only what to hear Ian Hunter-related music. The only exception to Ian Hunter based on YouTube's tracking is a Clash song and it still is related to Ian's first professional band, Mott The Hoople. The Clash were huge Mott fans and it inspired them to start musical careers themselves.
