by Hi everyone, here is our bi-weekly recommended listening posting for Friday, June 5, 2020.
–
Just a reminder, starting next week, I will be publishing suggested listening postings on Tuesday and Friday evenings, instead of Friday and Monday evenings. So, there will be a posting today Friday, June 5, then one on Wednesday, June 10, followed by one on Friday, June 12. And after that, the schedule will be Wednesday and Friday evenings.
