Believe it or not, Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales doesn’t know everything in the hugely popular online encyclopedia he helped create, but he does know a thing or two about music – from the mysteries of the heavy metal umlaut to the mentally stimulating powers of the Blue Man Group. As our Guest DJ, he chooses the “soundtrack to youth,” a prog rock classic and a parody song beloved amongst the Wikipedia community.
