These CDs are just for me and the pleasure of my friends. I have twenty years of music training, but only use it now to make these CDs. Though you can coax me to sing a few songs now and then.
What I do is select some of the music CDs I have (600 in all and
growing), I sit down at my computer and listen to them. I copy selected cuts to my computer and arrange them in an order that sounds good. Sometimes I edit the music file if the ending of the music has too much dead space with no sound. I love very tight segways. Then I use a program (software) called Roxio Easy CD and DVD Creator 6. I copy the music files to CD and make copies for Jillie and my friends. I have been told that I have rather good taste in music and everyone seems to love them.
Before we had writeable CD's on computers I used to record cassette tapes and before then I recorded 8-track tapes.
It gives me the enjoyment of sitting down and listening to music, my first love. And, the ablility to excercise my musical creativity.
Some people bake, I make music.
