[Heeplist] Living The Dream Review

[Stan From Home]

I think a combination of the aforesaid releases is a good thing, since they were all very good albums!!! That should be a Wow! I really like Phil’s release, it has good variety. I’ll have to listen to it some more also. We are lucky to have too fine releases this year!!!
