About Perfect Sounds

Perfect Sounds was an outlet for thoughts and comments on music and other aspects of culture, as well as listening notes, or short drafts, if not full reviews of albums, songs and concerts worthy of note or in other ways of general interest. These days, it is mostly used as place for infrequent "report cards", which is to say notes on and links to my published writing and criticism, or other contributions, such as polls.
