One half century and a day older.

Thank you all for birthday greetings and a wonderful day celebrating my birthday on June 20th. As most know I take my Itunes and music in general pretty serious, and the night of the 19th as I waited for the midnight hour to strike and begin the celebrating I put together a list of 50 of my favorites just to have playing on my big day, and of course one to build on for the next 50 years. It was kind of fun going through the library of songs and making the selections.
Some in order, but ironically they seemed to follow the timeline of me and events and happenings in my life, so that seemed interesting to see how I came up with what I did. Kind of crazy I guess.
So for those that may want to know what it was all about, I thought I would make the list known. Enjoy!!
