YouTube Spotify This is the fun part. A lot of these songs were alluded to in some previous days discussions, and are just here as examples of those albums, so I won’t retread old topics there. I’ll just touch on the stuff that wasn’t mentioned elsewhere. The Get Up Kids[…]

This is it, the final set of albums for 2019. Since I like to listen to music when I cook, these are the albums my wife has been subjected to the most in the kitchen throughout the year. No extra stuff at the end today, because these are long reviews[…]
