After once managing to get every song on my playlist onto the widget, it seems my luck has run out. Also, I can't tell the difference between what is and is not a solo. Maybe I'm over thinking it? I figure so long as one instrument is featured prominently in a part or all of a song, it'll fit in this category, right? Meh.
My playlist starts out rock and roll, then transitions via harmonica from Dylan to Gephardt and several other alternative tracks before transitioning via piano from Gonzalez to the Vince Guaraldi Trio and several jazzy tunes. The last four are just random songs I love. So there. :)
(I'm gonna email the missing tracks to you guys--widgets be damned.)
Kudos on finding "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" on Grooveshark. I especially liked tracks 10 & 11. Oh, and high fives all around for both of us choosing "Giant Steps."
Woah, I didn't even notice the "Giant Steps" redundancy. Great minds, my friend...great minds....
Thank you for selecting Chuck Berry. I wanted to use one of his songs myself but ended up cutting him. Amazing guitarist.
