[Rhodes22-list] Music Genone Project

[mputnam1 at aol.com]

For what it's worth, I just set up Pandora on my computer, and it's great.  I put in "Frank Sinatra," "Billie Holiday," and a few other random artists/songs from those eras and I'm now listening to the perfect web-surfing music while I write all of you fine folks.  And who knows how long it would have taken me to discover this if I hadn't decided to purchase a Rhodes and joined this discussion group?  
 
So, thank you ...

Ben, Bill, Rummy, et al,

I'll work on it (I solved my Frappr problem--Yey!) but ya know, I already
got so many damn songs in my head I can barely get to sleep at night...or
dawn or whenever.   It's scary to think of yet another huge batch of songs
that I need to think about.  Even scarier to think about a software program
that wants to second guess me.  I'm probably better off without it but I'm
sure I'd dig deep if I could.
