Random playlist

I love Winamp - such a neat little program. I also really like my 300GB external hardrive sitting on the floor. At the moment I have 70 hours of tunes loaded up. 1017 songs to be exact!

Here's a sample of what I'm listening to - courtesy of the 'random' function....

Big Country - In A Big Country - rockin' Scots tear up the 80s
Aqueduct - Frantic (Roman Polanski Version) - found while random searching on the Net
