Ashes to Ashes: A reintroduction to my personal music library
As I have shared with a select few of you, recently tragedy struck my personal life when my home caught on fire destroying our library and den all my PC’s and Stereo equipment and years of books collected and received as gifts. Also my entire digital music library was destroyed and I am forced to slowly piece a nearly 50,000 song collection back together.
So as a way for me to occupy my mind in the wake of this misfortune and to help speed up the process of reorganizing and cataloguing my music online I’ll be adding entries\reviews relating to specific albums as they get there first listen on my new PC in new digital format. The is no ranking, ordering, organizing within the reviews, they really won’t even be reviews in the traditional sense, just a stream of consciousness reaction to the music as I take it in again for the first time.
Thanks in advance and as always reaction, comments, critique and feedback are welcomed and encouraged from the Music Banter community.
