You may have noticed the addition, in early December, of four music albums towards the bottom of my right-hand column. I'm far more of a musician and aficionado than a bookworm; not to mention the library books through which I'm poring at the moment (a college geology text, a Marshall Plan account and some Japanese culture queries) are neither widely appealing nor likely to be found on Amazon. My tastes in music, however, would translate well to my small circle of readership. So why not share? I'll change them at least once a month, reflecting my preferred seasonal choices rather than a totally random assortment. With luck, I'll bring someone back to a neglected record or else expand readers' horizons; my holdings in classical and world music would have the best chance of doing so. And though many of the pop albums are well known, not everyone may actually own a copy or have ever listened to it all the way through.
If you have a little spending cash and are looking to broaden your CD cabinet, by all means - try one of these. If loaning works just as well, your local library will do.
