Records I listened to in the US May 2008
Here are most of the CDs I listened to while in the US. Yes that’s right I made a note of them as I went along. I thought I may as well. There’s a few that I’ve forgotten so you can blame the mota for that. Before Michael and I set off, we raided his tasty CD collection and filled up a plastic bucket, so that’s most of what we listened to. I also turned him onto some of the favourites I’d brought with me on my travels. Most of them were heard in the car driving from LA up to Seattle by way of San Francisco and Portland.
