Stuck In Thee Garage #156: December 16, 2016

People have been cursing 2016 essentially since it began, as one iconic musician after another passed away. That's not to say famous musicians don't die every year, but it just seemed particularly frequent this year. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played music from some of the artists we lost in 2016 and it didn't feel like a sad exercise at all. Just enjoyment of some pretty damn great music.
