Sadly the Live Music scene has been largely dormant apart from some inspired iso performances streamed online. But music & those that make it always find a way to inspire, comfort, entertain, thrill & make our lives better. Check out just some of the remarkable music made this year...you will be amazed. Think you will all agree that this year more than ever...the gift of music 'that keeps on giving' is the obvious choice...far more valueable & lasting than that bottle of something, choccies, jocks, socks...please try to support musicians & those that promote music in it's physical format...MAY THE FUN, THE SHARING, THE GIVING, THE GATHERING, THE KINDNESS BEGIN ...LET'S SEND THIS YEAR OFF WITH A BANG OF BOUNTY, GENEROUSITY & GRATEFULNESS...AND LOOK FORWARD BASEMEN TDISCS TO BETTER TIMES IN 2021...SURELY!! Our very best wishes to you & AC E J C yours for a Happy, Healthy & Safe Holiday Season & we hope to see or hear CR K R A K from you soon, SUZANNE & ROD
