when i had few i memorized album lyrics, names Played them again & again Albums i didn't favor at 1st often became FAVORITES! One's bought due to a hit song often grew tiresome quicker. SOME music needs TIME- multiple listens just as some films, poems finishing that book roots in a brain damaged

i've allowed my musical interests to become WAY too broad. As a child i liked tolerated most radio play & Hymns/choir songs. No expectations experience knowledge discernment about time, keys, poetry or words, phrasing changes simplicity or complexity. so my search became - what IS out there?
