All Songs Considered from NPR -- So That's What That Was

If you enjoy the in-depth, intelligent news coverage you hear on NPR's "All Things Considered", then I suspect you'll enjoy All Songs Considered as much as I did when I heard it for the first time recently. Despite what the listner from Allentown, PA says below, the cuts on this CD are in fact long versions of "music buttons" that have been playd on "All Things Considered". All Songs Considered is also a web-only program which is featured on the NPR Web site, .... There, you'll find much more of the wonderful music that you only hear snippets of everyday on the air. Happy listening, Maria Thomas, VP, NPR Online.

Good easy listening

Ever listen to NPR and be caught by the "bumper music" they play while changing programs? That's what this is. I got it because I suspected there was much more to the brief melodic phrases they play on the radio, and I was right.

Ideal to put on in the background for many occasions, such as working.

Great Addition to Your Collection

I own a lot of CDs and this is one of my favorites. The collection is thoughtfully put together and I have since bought many of the individual artists CDs. It's a great combination of folk, country and international music...just what you would expect from NPR..well done!
