I have in my car a USB stick with around 300+ albums; some of these albums I haven't yet heard. When I drive, sometimes I have the music set to shuffle all tracks, and then I just try to guess what the music is that's playing. Obviously, that's easy when I know the music well, but it's trickier when it's something I don't yet know. Sometimes, it's also a short cue and I think "dang, I KNOW what this is... but can't think of it right away"... then I have to guess it before the cue is over, or I lose. Just a game I play with myself sometimes when driving. And sometimes I come across a cue and think, hey, that's just the right music for now... and then I play the entire album. Interestingly enough, I do have the Chandos Christopher Gunning album... but have not yet listened to it

I listen , kev. I just don't tell you I am. And I keep getting tempted to buy some of Gunning's symphonies etc. I await a decent price ( drop) for them, though.

Well, I just listened to Christopher Gunning's suite from Rebecca, it's really beautiful. Now I'll make that Chandos album tonight's listening. :-)

Just a game I play with myself sometimes when driving. Heh, I play this game too. Sometimes I know exactly what it is, other times I try and guess the composer based on type of music/style/whathaveyou and it's quite often I would look at the result and realize I'd never be able to figure it out.... It's a fun game.

Hello Eileen, Thank you for the kind words. I do remember you and think of you often. Rumors of my demise are exaggerated but not GREATLY exaggerated. I did have a heart attack last year but unlike CONAN, that which did not kill did not make me stronger. A little bit weaker truth be told but its early days and I expect to fully rebound. I still post here infrequently but we must have missed the common threads that caught our mutual interests. I'll see if your old email address is still active. Paul
