Note:  The primary purpose of this mix is for my family’s enjoyment.  I also use the cds in this mix to write reviews and post them to my amazon.com account, craig-hamilton-newletters.blogspot.com, and craig-hamilton-media-review.blogspot.com.  By writing reviews, I hope to proliferate the pervasiveness of intelligent appreciation of good music.
