My Gift to Belinda Carlisle: Music With Character

I challenged myself to come up with 40 good albums released in just the last two years so that I could respond to people, like Belinda Carlisle, who think no good music is being made today.

As usual, I believe music is fine, it is the industry that is doing a terrible job of communicating great music to the masses.
