The following is a list of songs compiled from the data available in the Episode Guide here on Al's Place. Knut_Wileton had asked for a single list of all the songs that were played in Quantum Leap, so I went through the Guide and tried my best to get all the songs and their originators.

For songs that either did not have the original recording available or didn't have an actual "originator", I have listed suggestions of versions of that song; this is based on using Spotify (which, honestly, has almost nearly every song in its original recording; I'm very pleased with their selection).

[Spotify is a great program; there's a free version available, and that's what I'm using. Every once in a while there'll be an audio ad, but it isn't particularly annoying; far less than actual radio, for sure.]

This is by no means a 100% finished playlist. I only used the information available on the Episode Guide. There are probably more songs that can be added. Please let me know so I can update the list!

I created a playlist, including all the suggested versions (you can go through and pick your favorite and delete the rest), in Spotify. Here's the link:

No prob!

I saw your app request on Facebook but apparently I don't have any invites to give out... Dunno why; I've never sent anyone an invite.

But it didn't take me too long to receive my e-mail to register for Spotify.

I did learn yesterday, however, that after 6 months of unlimited play in the Free plan, your account gets limited to 10hrs a month and 5 plays per track.

So, I signed up for Grooveshark yesterday and I'm gonna work on making the playlist on there as well.

Yeah, I selected your name when it prompted me to choose a friend, and then it went right through to sign me up, so I'm not sure how it's really supposed to work. Looks great!
 
Yeah, I really like the UI of Spotify. I'm trying to get used to Grooveshark and it's taking me a bit to learn it all. I'm really considering getting the $5/month plan with Spotify, which'll take all the limitations off... I can eat at Taco Bell for a month to cover it, LOL.
 
oh,wow! I was looking for something exactly like this. In that way I can listen to them on YT :hurray:
