Greetings music fans,
Today I will highlight the artists from last month and give my selection for their best album and song.
This may seem like a copout blog, and it kind of is. But, with good reason, we became foster parents to three endearing and for the moment, little puppies on Saturday, and they necessitate and deserve more attention than you! Just kidding, you too deserve some attention, but this is as good as it gets today. However, I did pull video for each song selected. That should count for something!
