I'm looking forward to checking out the bloggers who participate in your music event, but I decided not to squeeze that one in my schedule. It would have been a great excuse to take a day and chill to music as I sorted through my little collection, but my few hours of chilling were spent with my nose in a book. Good book, though (Galen Kindley's Hearts of the Morning Calm).Patricia Stolteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17192369425956406122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-5999104796759417652010-05-15T09:10:53.202-07:002010-05-15T09:10:53.202-07:00I would not mind reading about music for the next ...I would not mind reading about music for the next few weeks.

It has been agonizing. ... I am very happy with my final choices, but saddened about the ones I've had to leave behind.</b></i><br /><br />rLEE-b ~<br />Just last night, I wrote the "Introduction" to my list and I addressed this very topic - the agony and the regret. But I actually put a slightly different spin on it, presenting it as a positive sign that my list has been compiled properly. You'll see what I mean on Monday.<br /><br />And by the way, all of my in-depth analysis about each album included will appear on Monday's list, so my blog entry will be somewhat lengthy. But unlike you, I don't intend to blog every day and after Monday, I will turn my attention to subjects other than music, so my Blog Bit will be a selfcontained unit. <br /><br />WILL BURKE ~<br />Much private discussion has occurred regarding "rules" and such. It has been generally accepted that "double albums" count as one entry. And, in fact, one could even include boxed sets by a single artist and count it as one. In other words, if you could purchase the album in a record store and it required only a single scan of a UPC bar-code, it counts as just "one".<br /><br />We are trying to learn what music you would keep in an "extreme" situation, so I would hope that no one would include a list of 15 boxed sets totalling 132 compact discs. But Arlee Bird is right: It's your list, so do as you will (please pardon the pun ;o)<br /><br />~ "Lonesome Dogg" McD-FensStephen T.
