A program director once told me about his least favorite type of call from listeners. While he was glad that people were listening and enjoying the music, it drove him crazy when a listener would ask, "There was this piece you played last week, I think, or maybe it was a week or two before that. I think there was a flute in it. Do you know what piece that is?" When having such a vague description to go on, the p.d.'s answer was, "No."
I wonder if some of those same listeners ever went into a bookstore and asked, "You know that book with the brown cover...?"
