Back to my wheelhouse:  a music-themed puzzle.  This one required some creative construction architecture, which left me with an unusually-sized (14×15) grid with vertical symmetry and ended up resembling a person.  Arguably, it’s a better likeness of a person than I could draw freehand, which tells you all you need to know about my artistic shortcomings.  I’ll leave you with a link to Pure Prairie League’s recording of 10 Down, a gorgeous example of folk-rock.
