Music seems to be everywhere these days; on the radio, the television, even the World Wide Web. There just isn’t enough time to hear it all even if you wanted to (and believe me: you don’t!). Time is now the more precious commodity; time to relax, time to think…time to listen.
So do your mind a favor and just listen. Dim the living-room lights, find a quiet spot on the credenza, sit back, and aurally please yourself with the easy-listening sounds of Birds, Kites, Balloons. You’ll be oh-so-glad you did.
