“I’m trying to learn how to access things because, although I grew up on radio and record stores, that was a long time ago. I’m bumbling along.…But I think anyone would agree, no matter how much you’re old-school, that when you haven’t heard a song for 50 years, and you think, “How did that song go?”—and bang, there it is, right at your fingertips—that’s amazing. That could have taken six months to track down in the old days, though, arguably, that was a fun six months.”

During the search among assorted books, magazines, and records, once-forgotten characters and 'persons of interest' can pop up unexpectedly.  Such side-tracking has its rewards -- if you've got the time to spare.
