Spotify has come up with an innovative way of using Facebook’s much debated ‘Timeline’ feature to its advantage.

The list of music related events is extremely detailed and therefore long and informative. With a number of unpopular musicians who contributed to the art, music historians will be bound to be pleased with the information.
