TODAY’S ADDITION TO THE LIST:

#45 -- "Alberta Bound" by Paul Brandt ... Click Here

A country tune from north of the border makes its way onto the list. Anyone who knows me by my FR screen name shouldn't be surprised by this one!

I'd be surprised if more than a handful of American Freepers even recognize this one, as I've never heard it played on a radio station down here in the U.S. But anyone who has been speeding north in a pickup truck toward the Sweetgrass, Montana border crossing on I-15 will understand the sentiment of the first stanza perfectly. :-)

Oh, hey. I actually read a bit of your opening message, and noted that you’re transitioning computers. The method changes from time to time, based on OS, etc, but you can transfer the entire itunes database from one computer to another. Just do a search for it and you’ll find all sorts of instructive websites.

And for your future reference, I try to run my computer like this:

Main drive (SSD): OS and user apps, some user data, games, etc.
Secondary drive (HDD, Western Digital): two (or more) partitions
Partition 1: Documents, 3d printing files, pictures, etc.
Partition 2: Music, iTunes library, videos, etc.

Copy user data from SSD to the HDD often, so that it’s “backed up”. Make backups of the HDD occasionally (but I’ve never had a Western Digital drive fail, knock knock)

That way, next time I build a new PC, build PC with new SSD, then copy the contents to a new HDD and keep the old one as “backup”. Transfer iTunes library, and it’s good to go. Huzzah!

Welp, looks like you gave up on this, I can understand why. Hope you’re doing well and having a good time on this fabulous weekend.

For amusement, and because I plan on afflicting others, and because I doubt you’ll bother continuing this, I made up a spotify playlist with some of my favorites. A few more than 50, though. Who knows, you might just find something you like.

Take care & Happy Memorial Day!
