by Pete Crigler

NOTE: While I had hoped to go into deeper detail about each record and song, working on my dissertation for my Master’s degree in English left me with very little time for overt detail. Hopefully, one can listen to these tunes and simply understand why I think they’ve been so amazing, or not.
