As music and books cross my radar, whether through reviews, the various sources I read, or word-of-mouth, I keep track of it all in a special folder on my Favorites list. I thought that someone might find it interesting.
It would take me about two seconds to expand these lists by hundreds of entries off the top of my head. Anyway, if I'm able to add any of these to my collection, I'll make a note of that by putting an asterisk at the end of the entry.
By the way, don't get the wrong idea. This is not my wedding registry.
