The Time Machine surveys 2002 this time. The year Coldplay dropped their 2nd album & it was no sophomore slump. Wilco released what many call the best album of their career called Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. We were first introduced to Norah Jones, who released one of the best selling albums of the new millennium. Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings dropped their debut. The Flaming Lips showed a more sensitive side on the Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots album. Its all 2002, our year on this episode of Time Machine.
