MidYear Favorites

Sitting and listening to amazing music during the HeatWave and thinking of Martha and the Vandellas, I was prompted to publish a HalfYear List which will help me be a little more clever by the End of Year. Spotify is a godsend. If you have not signed up, do not pass go and go to Spotify.com and sign up. You can listen to anything for Free. And if you want to pop for $120.00 a year you listen without commercials. I recommend it highly.
