Comment:

What is the distance between genres? Solo piano for the majority (some
tracks incorporate subtle synths, others brushed snares, cello or bass lines);
a refitting (of sorts) with new ambient work fused onto the skeleton frames of
burned out Chevrolets*, uhm...the
original's (mixed 1998) piano selections.

Combines classical, ambient, jazz, experimental & freeform piano stylings. Part 1 of 2.

This looks all kinds of great. 88 keys to the soul - can't wait to see (& hopefully hear) part 2...
ditto Muzag on the barcode & sweet cover as well. The beach suits you well, Gene.

I hope that this mix did not get scratched when it fell out of heaven.

Exactly what everyone else said. And of course, my mailbox is at your disposal my good man ;-)

Oh, wow - just wow. Although I'm not the biggest fan of John Cage, that pick looks like it works beautifully slotted in there - really like that track -> end, actually. Nice.

Looks great, but no Elton John? (note how I use humor to disguise the fact that I have no clue what any of this sounds like)

Clever, Ion, clever (almost went right over me li'l head). Sadly Sir Elton
could not be squeezed, leveraged or otherwise inserted into this one (maybe version CCXII).
Even his little ditty, "Song for Guy", would have been too "poppy" & out of
place...sigh (maybe I can slip "Saturday Night's Allright for Fighting" onto
volume 2). : )
