Notes:
I ended up not listening to anything yesterday due to training at work and a mid-day ALCS game, so finishing the C's will have to wait until tomorrow.
I was unaware that I had eight unique versions of "Crossroads."  I knew there was a lot, but not eight.  That may be the record, but we'll have to wait and see how many versions of "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" come up when I get to the K's.
21 "Crazy" songs took up a lot of the day, but it was a pretty solid day all around.
On to the D's tomorrow!
