"cds cds cds"

i have too many cds. it's cluttered with cds and mismatched music. i just ordered 3 jazzy hip hop cds (cherrywine's bright black, digable planets' live from seattle, dj cam's soulshine) but i'm not a total hip hop head. i don't side with either whole mainstream nor underground, music is music. i love what i love. and sometimes my love gets me stuck with a lot of cds. this is a list of all the cds i've received/bought this brave 2003:

music blesses us with such partial presence, we have to hold on as long as we can.

i'm always down to share and speak about music. just holler at me and we'll listen to music together sometime. show me what you love and i'll show you mine.
