Paul's Picks updated
For several years now, my list of favorites has made its way around the internet and shared by many. That's great. I thought perhaps it's time to update and extend that list for those music lovers looking for some fresh reference tunes. This task has been on my list of to-dos for some time. Recently, I got jogged out of complacency as the bull grabbed its own horns. Members of our Forums started a new thread called "Our list for Paul". You can visit that thread here. Much appreciated as we all like to have new and great recordings to play. In the meantime, I share with you my playlist.
