This is a good month to explain how I rate CDs. I rank a CD based on value. I think it's reasonable to ask for 10 decent songs per CD. This equates to about a buck a song, which is the iTune cost.
Each song I add to my iTunes library gets the CD half a point. If I like 10 songs from one CD (whether I already had the songs or not), it would get a score of five stars. If I only add two songs, the CD gets one star.
I bring this up because this is a five star CD. I have 15 songs from this CD in my library now (those in bold). It's a good value.
I try to get the Grammy Nominees CD each year. Some years are better than others, but it's always been a good value. These CDs have introduced me to some performers I hadn't previously heard. I first heard Andrea Bocelli on the 2000 edition.
I expect to continue the tradition each year.Enough for now,
