The Music Genome Project has created a nifty little app called Pandora. You tell it the names of artists or songs that you like and it creates a streaming "radio station" that plays stuff that's like that. So far it seems to work: I pluged in Miles, and Monk and Dylan and the Stones and some other stuff and it has played back James Moody and Carla Bley and Bill Charlap and Gerry Mulligan along with some Miles and some Monk. And oh yeah, ""2000 Light Years From Home". Artificial Intelligence-- whadda you gonna do?
