MUSIC SIGNPOSTS ON THE WEB'S LONELY ROAD

I arrived to work in my kitchen last week to find a cd next to the coffee urn ... a burned cd of Roy Hargrove .. it had my name on it. Hmmmm..... The next day I came in and there was another one ... Steve Winwood, and again my name- a mystery now:)

This is a true story.

The next day I come in and there's a small stack of cd's! Sweet! A few Ella and Duke recordings and an Amos Lee. These discs not only had the songs neatly listed on them, but some very funny colorful illustrations too. I asked around for days to find the person responsible ... nothing.

The following week this tiny little girl in the lunchline asks me, "Did you get those cd's?".

Whoa ... I almost fell on the floor. Turns out that she had overheard me complaining one day that I was bored with my music collection, so she went ahead and burned me some of what she liked and added some of her Dad's music. Can you believe that?

Very touching. I'm still touched by it. And I'm an Amos Lee fan now:)
