noting as I come across good musical things

I wanted to have a blog where I could note some of the great musical discoveries I made.

I have really enjoyed listening to music since I was grade school, maybe even in kindergarten.

I cannot sing at all, and I play the piano in a way that could best be described as not so good.

That does not mean I have no appreciation for a good riff, a bold refrain, a sad ballad, a lonely solo, or a happy chorus.

I like music and I think it is a good thing.

Other species might sing. They might even communicate by singing.

But we alone build instruments, write songs to four part harmonies, and congregate in the tens of thousands to hear them played.

We are the only ones that send our sound waves through the radio waves.

Some of us make music. But many, many, many of us embrace it.
