Classic Experience

This boxset of classical music contributed in defining my taste in music and who I am today. When in periods of poor health or bad mood, these songs give me strength and remind me of my past and my values. God bless the curator of these melodies and God bless my father who bought me "Classic Experience I" record. I was always very excited whenever I got hold of each new part of this collection.
