Thanks, John! I did. I liked "Sax solo" especially.

You know, though, I just realized that there's this small, finger-wagging part of my subconscious that gets distressed when I watch this genre of video, from Dylan on forward. At some deep level, I keep thinking, "Oh no! They're littering!"

Thanks very much, Heiðabýr; I wonder if the use of musical flash-cards now constitutes a meme??

(LOVE the 'thorn'  'edth'  'eth'  in your name, by the way--and the interesting possible layering of the name!)

Hedeby
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hedeby (Danish pronunciation: [ˈheːðəby], Old Norse Heiðabýr, from heiðr  = heathland, and býr  = yard, thus "heath yard"), mentioned by Alfred the Great as aet Haethe  (at the heath), in German Haddeby and Haithabu, a modern spelling of the runic Heiðabý(r) was an important trading settlement in the Danish-northern German borderland during the Viking Age. It flourished from the 8th to the 11th centuries.
