fun with music
Feb. 7th, 2008 05:42 pm.
My evening stretches (prescribed) take about fifteen minutes, and I usually like to do them with music. The other day I opened up iTunes, as I often do, and had a stroke of cleverness. I went to the Library (which contains everything) and viewed by length. Then I had plenty to choose from, instead of trying to think of something appropriate to listen to.
This also got me listening to things I keep forgetting I have.
Another thing: every so often, I think of music I miss -- used to have, or used to hear, or whatever -- and remember to go search emusic for it. So now I can listen to the Mills Brothers in my favorite version of "Tiger Rag" whenever I want. And Rudy Vallee's classic performance of "The Whiffenpoof Song" too.
