i just couldn't rank these musicians... i would have to change the
order daily, depending on my mood... so i just alphabetized them...
and, no... at this point in time a pc with cheap speakers and telephone
wire transmission IS NOT hi-fidelity... so i did not record them that way...
this is just intended to tantalize you and make you search out these artists'
work, and give 'em a listen... K... the rant is done... on to the tunes!!!
