Seems there was not much music in yesterday’s post, mainly a list of books and movies here’s a playlist today! Off course, I was nowhere at all! I have said somewhere on this blog before, I was born in late 70’s so this is more what songs I love to listen too from the late 50’s. Pretty much like all my blog post titles, after a while I think of something better but it’s a bit late by then but do I go on about that too much anyway?
