Stories, Tales, Secrets...

I made three mixed CDs for a friend and named them "Stories", "Tales", and "Secrets."  Here's the list of songs and artists I chose to share.  Many of these singer-songwriters I have met and heard in person, some because they live and work in Oklahoma City, while others have traveled here for a gig at a venue or a house concert.  I also wanted to share the recent artistic creations I have been working on, so I gave each CD a cover, and I'll have that same image accompany the playlists below...
