Listening to Music

My husband work for Tower Records for 13 years in the 80's and early 90's.  Because of this we have an extensive vinyl and CD collection.  Since we moved in 2004 our vinyl has been in boxes waiting for a record rack to be built.  In our old house the records were on shelves 6 feet wide by 6 feet high and it was full.  We have 42 feet of CDs in the open now but still have boxes that have not been unpacked.

Last weekend I decided to clean the house and listen to music.  I did this the weekend before, but didn't write down everything I was listening to. Some of it was:
