For Our Listening Pleasure

Each song or performance heard expands and enhances a performer's musical sensibilities, and some performances prove to be inspirational. I'm sure we've all heard stories about someone who has heard a song, only to find himself so inspired that, for better or worse, he goes and writes a plethora of material, or chooses to fight against some cause, or chooses to change his life in some other extraordinary way, such as starting a family.

Expansion upon musical ideas has been a mainstay of many forms of music in the world, although I do know of a few places, where the music must be performed in the same manner, generation after generation. In this case, I would like this place on my page to be a place where musical tastes are shared, and not just my own particular likes and dislikes are depicted. Therefore, I invite you to add to this page by leaving a note in my guestbook. Any song or piece of music you like. Try to keep it to one per artist. I do reserve the right not to include any piece for any reason, though, I'm sure those will be far and few between.
