Maria Conchita Alonso, Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66, The Police

I've been playing more Police now that they got back together in the Grammys. I hope they do decide to go on a U.S tour.

There are songs from almost all the artists that are among my personal favorites....for example even though Styx is last on my list, their song "Crystal Ball" is a fave. And Lani Hall...her first and second solo albums are awesome, but I can't find as much to love in subsequent albums. I tried to rank my list based on the entire catalog of each artist. Not easy, and I think a lot of my preferences would probably change with whatever mood I'm in!
