More Music
Upon consideration, I've begun creating multiple playlists. I don't want homogenous playlists, though, so I'm just grabbing a dozen or so albums at random, recording them, and turning the result into a playlist. The lists wind up being rather long - I estimate 13-15 hours apiece - and there's no way I could listen all the way through to any of them. But by hitting "shuffle" each time they play, I should get a crack at each song on the list eventually.
The first playlist contains: Seventh Sojourn, the Moody Blues; Suddenly, Billy Ocean; Donovan's Greatest Hits; Mariah Carey; Greatest Hits, the Kingston Trio; Come On, Come On, Mary Chapin Carpenter; Scenes from the South Side, Bruce Hornsby and the Range; Faster Than the Speed of Night, Bonnie Tyler; Let It Loose, Gloria Estefan; Grandes Exitos, Shakira; and the two-disc set Motown: The Classic Years.
The second: EWF, Earth, Wind & Fire; The End of the Innocence, Don Henley; Lives in the Balance, Jackson Browne; The United Artists Collection, Gordon Lightfoot (2 disks); Don Quixote, Gordon Lightfoot; Sunshine, Lollipops & Rainbows, Lesley Gore; Greatest Hits, Suzy Bogguss; Anyone Who Had a Heart, Dionne Warwick; The Colour of My Love, Celine Dion; Goin' Back, Dusty Springfield; Truly, Lionel Richie; and The Four Tops.
The third will consist of: The World of Sheena Easton; Twenty Years of Dirt, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band; The Singles 1969-1973, The Carpenters; The Best of Gene Pitney, vols. 1 and 3; The Hollies' Greatest Hits; Their Greatest Hits, Herman's Hermits; The Neil Diamond Collection; The Best of the Temptations, vol. 2; Aretha's Best; The Best of Jefferson Airplane; and Serious Hits...Live!, Phil Collins.
Just in case anyone was curious about my musical tastes...

Have you ever checked out the filk archives at dendarii.com? How do you feel about them? If you'd like, I can bring you a cd of the Bujold-themed filk at GaFilk when Lois was there; just drop me an email.

I do check the filk archives from time to time; a half-dozen of my own compositions are up there. (I do wish that people had found the inspiration to complete "Cordelia: The Musical".)
Yes, I think I'd like that CD. I think a couple of mine ("My Grandfather's Life" and "We're a Mercenary Crew") were in the songbook; I don't know whether they were actually sung, though. Or I may be thinking of something entirely different...
