AND! Even on topic! Can someone ask Echo for me how old she was when she died?

Hey, Richard could "bang on the piano" with the best of 'em.
Still can, for that matter.

I like it when reading period noir.

Otherwise, classical, light jazz and select pop instrumental is my background reading music for SF. For fantasy, I tend to go with the Medieaval Babes, Lessiem, or Enya.

(There used to be a thread on background reading music, right?)

Oh, yeah; I forgot that one. I love Big Band Swing - Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, etc.

I don't remember such a thread.

I'd love one though! I'm always looking for music that works for reading.

Definitely agree on her voice.

32 years, 11 months, and 2 days.

I listen to Frank Sinatra, Stephen Sondheim Broadway cast albums, the Beatles, and the Big Box albums from the Bach Guild.

Have you tried the Prime Music "music for reading playlist" mostly classical but it is soothing.

I haven't does using the playlist add the songs to your library for Good? I just spent two hours the other day tracking down Prime music added to get rid of it. Amazon hasn't made it easy once added to get rid of the songs when you add an album.

You have to add the playlist to your library if you want to listen to it.

Deleting is really easy if you do it from Your Music Library on your PC.

Not if you got thousands of songs on there it hard to tell which are Prime and which are yours.

Does adding the playlist to your library add the songs to as well? So if I want to later delete it am I a going to have to delete each song too? I know on Album added you have to delete each song. It doesn't allow you to delete the Album only.

It only adds the playlist. You have to go out of your way to add the songs.

It does allow you to delete the album. First select all tracks, then delete the entire album. That's just two keystrokes once you've found the album.

This should really be discussed in the thread in the Lounge.

Finding the albums is hard part. It get really tricky if you have purchased a few songs from that album but not others. There use to be a trash option but they remove that so if you accidentally a song that isn't Prime it's gone.

My daughter put the Cub's Winning the World Series on my shopping list. Looking at my shopping list on my Fire HDX is enough for me.

I really like the sound. But like others, I like it better close to the wall. It is in my kitchen, and I listen to it in the attached family room. I want another for our vacation house, but my husband hasn't gotten an invitation yet (he probably just didn't tell me. I guess I am kinda an electronics junky).

My Grandson added "X Box Game Station in white" Like yeah, I am going to go through my list at the store and do that! Made me giggle.
