  1. Why don't you do some classical music? The Berlin Philharmonic performing Mahler or something?

  3. You ask us what we think of the music you present. I mailed you a list of recommended pieces and musicians from A through the letter O, and my post is ignored. So just continue to do as you please, Rich, it's your blog, right?

    1. Anony 12:53 -- maybe here's a tip. It's give and take, maybe. I think Rich does a fine job in developing a new idea here and he has done it on his owns. Writing a list "from A-O" to him makes it seem like "I'm better than you, so, do my list." You're right - it's his blog, and for those of us who love what he's doing, giving him a list of what "YOU" like is disrespectful and no one knows what you're talking about. He knows his groove on this, so, let him shine with something good on his own and give him credit. Don't tell him how to do it better than he can, because he's already doing a good job with it as a personal touch. On other things, there may be discussion, but on this -- it's his unique deal. Give him credit and maybe a request -- not an alphabetized list. Lastly, don't whine about not getting responded to. Thanks. Just a tip.

    2. 2;16 PM, Thanks for your input. I will end the discussion with this; fine I give Rich credit for sharing his music with us, all I ask is that if he doesn't want direct feedback on that topic, then please don't keep asking us for it. Like many so called Baby Boomers with a trace of grey, I take my music seriously. But, yes, I can lighten up too. I can just decide to Let It Be.

  4. Listen to an oldies station like Rich does. When you like a song search for it on Youtube. Click the play 'button'.

    1. Yeah, but at least he married "Mrs. Jones" -- now, Blanche Williams Paul. They've been married 47 years. Billy had to sue his "best friend" Kenny Gamble for a half-mill to collect on royalties he was screwed from. Talk about perverse. Amen to some E W & Fire!
