Barry Manilow: Summer of ‘78 CD
The liner jacket for Barry Manilow: Summer of ‘78 CD is nothing more than a very long credits listing, so that’s a little disappointing. There is a quick few lines signed by Barry on the last page, but that doesn’t help to make the liner worthwhile. When …
Serj Tankian - Saving Us (Song)
