It was a great month of music listening in July!  Not only did I listen to a whole bunch of albums, but I am really excited about the variety of music I was able to consume.  July was a good example of what I envisioned when I started this project because I wanted to experience a variety of artists' albums in their entirety.  Here are the albums I was able to listen to in July:

Best Memories: Are You Experienced, Jimi Hendrix -

I did a deep dive into discovering Jimi when I was in college. This brought back stories and thoughts of friends I hadn't thought about in a very long time.

Biggest Surprise: City Music, Chris Morby -

Big, honest music in this album. Morby is quickly becoming a favorite artist.

Biggest Disappointment: The World's Most Dangerous Party, Paul Shaffer

Um...I have no idea what to say. This wasn't the Paul that I knew as musical host of David Letterman.

Perfect Moment to Listen: Good Thing, Leon Bridges

Any time you put this album on, it will be the perfect time. Super chill and funky

Most Fun: Greatest Hits, DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince -

What can I say, it was a blast!
