"Randal's View!"

      "This Week in Fingerstyle"  on Spotify by  Daryl Shawn ! November 30, 2020 by  Randal L Meek "www.randalsview.blog" The end of November is here and the holidays are quickly approaching. What a year it's been.

Better days ahead! So, it's time for me to "raise the chatter" on the small segment of the musical world tha
