My Favorite Albums Of All Time (Part 6)
I have all those old MOVE albums. Shazam might be the best. "Cherry Blossom Clinic" "Fields of People."
It's gratifying for me to go through my album collection and choose the crucial recordings for whatever mysterious reasons. It also took longer than I suspected it would. Each record brings a specific memory to me.
