Adam Beaudoin's 15 Favorite Albums of 2025

Read "Adam Beaudoin's 15 Favorite Albums of 2025" reviewed by Adam Beaudoin

Certo, una foto verrà scattata. Potrebbe persino dimostrare che eri lì, in quel momento, quando ...

Growing up in Houston, Texas, Kate Kortum shared a computer with her five siblings. “Somehow, the Ella Fitzgerald recording of 'How High the Moon' from her Live in Berlin album ended up on the computer," she recalled. “I had no idea you could sing like that.
