Trying a bit more of a what’s in rotation style of blogs! How should we kick this one off? Should we go full High Fidelity style? Should I tell you about the ins and outs of my daily existence – my plans for the week? Who caaaaaares? (though I am excited to see Blue Velvet

Indeed, 17 albums makes it 32 for December. I listened to 366 just because… WHAT IS MAVY? Anyways, that’s the year. I did it! I’ll do some recaps in the new year. I’m tired.

WHAT IS MAVY? Table of contents: Sam Cooke – Mr. Soul (1963) Genre: Soul Recommended for: All Sam Cooke is perhaps the most important soul artist in history, some deem to be the genre’s creator.
