Summary
UPDATE 07/28/16 Fixed a bug that caused the page to reload each time the button was clicked.
UPDATE 03/11/16* Replacing the "Listen Now" button appears to stop working after a few hours, probably because Listen Now doesn't always load right away on page start. Instead I've added a little headphones icon to the top of the nav bar, next to the Google Notifications and App Drawer. This stays on continuously and always takes you back to recently played.
Back in the day, clicking on the "Listen Now" button in Play Music would send you to a nice little page with all of your recently played music. Then it was changed so "Listen Now" sends you to a gross little splash page with some extra playlists and whatever. This extension makes it so Listen Now will send you to your recently played page. Hurray.
