@Travlin I have a Samsung Android Tablet, and for me to listen offline, for one you need to be sure the content that you want to listen to offline is already downloaded, that has to be done while still online. When I turn my wi-fi off my Pandora app will inform me (Listen Offline) I just click Ok. My Pandora app will also inform me (OFFLINE MODE) to return to listen online I just click the refresh symbol on the top of my screen. It will then inform me I'm back online. For you to get the best listening experience while riding, I would just keep your Pandora in the offline mode the whole time. Once you get to where you want to go, then I would switch it back to online mode. I hope this may be useful for you. If not, well I wish you the best in staying safe while riding. Take care and stay safe.  ... View more

@Listener001 I truly am sorry if I had at all made you feel bad, I was just explaining your priorities are more important than posting music on a post and playlist. Yes, it is fun to do, and it also feels good to make someone feel good about the music they like. Anytime one takes into consideration what someone else likes makes them not only feel good but yourself as well. At least that is how I feel. Well, take care and stay safe.  ... View more

I do apologize for such a late post. Here is what happened on "This Day In The History Of Music" for this Monday.   1956 - Lys Assia: The first Eurovision Song Contest was held in Lugano, Switzerland. The event was the brainchild of Marcel Baisoncon of the European Broadcasting Union. Seven countries participated and they were each allowed two songs. Both Luxembourg and the winner Switzerland used the same singer for both. Switzerland won with 'Refrain' by Lys Assia. 1962 - Elvis Presley: was at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'Good Luck Charm' his 11th UK No.1 single. It completed his second hat-trick of chart-topping singles in the UK. 1963 - The Beatles: recorded the first of their very own BBC radio program, "Pop Go the Beatles". The theme song for the program was a version of "Pop Goes the Weasel". The Beatles' guests for this first show were the Lorne Gibson Trio. 1963 - Elmore James: US blues guitarist and singer Elmore James died of a heart attack aged 45. James wrote 'Shake Your Money Maker', which was covered by Fleetwood Mac in 1968. Known as "The King of the Slide Guitar", James influenced Jimi Hendrix, B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Keith Richards. 1966 - Captain Beefheart: appeared at the Whisky a Go-Go. West Hollywood, California. Supported by Buffalo Springfield and The Doors. 1968 - The Rolling Stones: released the single 'Jumpin Jack Flash' in the UK, the track gave them their seventh UK No.1 hit. Keith Richards has stated that he and Jagger wrote the lyrics while staying at Richards' country house, where they were awoken one morning by the sound of gardener Jack Dyer walking past the window. When Jagger asked what the noise was, Richards responded: "Oh, that's Jack – that's jumpin' Jack." 1969 - Bob Dylan: album Nashville Skyline peaked at No.3 in the US chart. The singer's ninth album also scored Dylan his fourth UK No.1. The album featured 'Lay Lady Lay', which became one of Dylan's biggest pop hits, reaching No.7 in the US, his biggest single in three years. 1969 - Billy Preston: The Beatles with Billy Preston started a five-week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Get Back, the group's 17th US No.1. Credited to "The Beatles with Billy Preston", it was the Beatles' only single that credited another artist, 'Get Back' was also the Beatles' first single release in true stereo in the US. 1970 - Peter Green: Guitarist and founding member Peter Green played his last gig with Fleetwood Mac when they appeared at the Bath Festival, Somerset, England. 1974 - David Bowie: released his eighth studio album Diamond Dogs. The cover art features Bowie as a striking half-man, half-dog grotesque painted by Belgian artist Guy Peellaert. It was controversial as the full painting clearly showed the hybrid's genitalia. 1975 - Earth Wind and Fire: went to No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Shining Star', the group's first and only US No.1. 1980 - Phil Collins: Genesis fans turning up at the Roxy Club box office in Los Angeles to buy tickets for a forthcoming gig were surprised to find the band members Phil Collins, Tony Banks, and Mike Rutherford selling the tickets themselves. 1991 - Gene Clark: Founder member of The Byrds Gene Clark died of a heart attack aged 49.

Mercury, who featured on the 19p stamp, was a keen stamp collector, and his collection was bought by the Post Office in 1993. The stamp marked his contribution to the Live Aid charity concert in 1985, and caused controversy by featuring a small portion of Queen’s drummer, Roger Taylor, in the background - UK stamps by tradition only carry pictures of living persons who are members of the Royal Family. 2000 - Chrissie Hynde: A New York Judge told Pretenders singer Chrissie Hynde that if she wanted her March arrest for protesting the sale of leather goods in a Gap store dismissed, she'd better keep her nose clean for the next six months. 2000 - Andrea Corr: and Sharon Corr from The Corrs both collapsed in the mid-day sun whilst shooting their new video in the Mojave Desert in California.

Liberty Devitto claimed that Joel hadn't paid him proper royalties for 10 years of his work. Devitto was Joel's drummer from 1975 until 2005 when he said he was abruptly thrown out of the band. He said: "People get fired, they get severance or insurance for a certain period of time. I didn't even get a phone call. It was cold." 2010 - Slipknot: Paul Gray, the bassist with US metal band Slipknot, was found dead in a hotel in Des Moines, Iowa.

@Demus517, @mrsmoneybaggYO, I do a daily post here on Pandora called GSOTD (Genre Songs Of The Day). I also have a playlist that was created just for this post.

Here is the playlist. Genre Songs Of The Day (GSOTD) So for you as a Rap (music) artist I will be more than happy to add your music to this post and playlist. However, it must be clean. There used to be a GSOTD explicit only post and playlist, but it has been abandoned due to more important priorities, and the lack of someone else willing to step in and take it over. I myself would do it, but this is my busy time of year for work, and I have all I can do as it is to curate the two posts that I do here on Pandora right now. So feel free to make your request for your music, I will also mention you on the post with your selected songs. Take care and stay safe.  ... View more

Good Sunday afternoon, for GSOTD  I will be adding four songs by request, the first two come from a music artist here on Pandora Phil Klein ( @philmobet ) 1) Jungle Juice. 2) Night Stalker. The next two songs are from @KristenLvsTyler  1) Only One In Color by Trapt. 2) Crimson And Clover by Tommy James & The Shondells. These two songs are from the Music Challenge #14 Color playlist. I will add the last song, this song is by Jewel Kilcher which happens to be her 47th birthday today. Jewel also happens to be my favorite music artist, my favorite song has already been added to this post and playlist, but there are three versions of this song, so I will add what is probably the fan-favorite version of Foolish Games that features another Popstar music artist Kelly Clarkson. Enjoy the music and enjoy the rest of your Sunday.    Smooth Jazz: Jungle Juice by Phil Klein ( @philmobet ). Jungle Juice  Klein allows Coster even more hypnotic leeway spraying the "Jungle Juice," but shows a more heartfelt side with the instrumental version of the title cut featuring Stef Burns ' sweet acoustic charms. Jazz//Contemporary Jazz: Night Stalker by Phil Klein ( @philmobet ). Night Stalker  A funky tune like "Night Stalker" opens itself up to each of these masters' strengths, a silky soprano melody with a slight improv opportunity for Russo and a spacy, in-the-pocket keyboard solo for Coster. Rock: Only One In Color by Trapt. Only One In Color  Trapt is an American rock band formed in Los Gatos, California. It consists of vocalist Chris Taylor Brown, bassist Pete Charell, and guitarist Brendan Hengle. They have recorded eight studio albums to date: Amalgamation (1999), Trapt (2002), Someone in Control (2005), Only Through the Pain (2008), No Apologies (2010), Reborn (2013), DNA (2016), and Shadow Work (2020). Trapt is best known for their 2002 hit "Headstrong". Soundtrack: Crimson And Clover by Tommy James & The Shondells. Crimson And Clover  "Crimson and Clover" is a 1968 song by American rock band Tommy James and the Shondells. Written by the duo of Tommy James and drummer Peter Lucia Jr., it was intended as a change in direction of the group's sound and composition. "Crimson and Clover" was released in late 1968 as a rough mix after a radio station leaked it. It spent 16 weeks on the U.S. charts, reaching number one in the United States and other countries. Pop//Pop-rock: Foolish Games (feat. Kelly Clarkson) by Jewel.  Foolish Games (feat. Kelly Clarkson)   For her cover of Jewel's "Foolish Games", Clarkson is joined by none other than Jewel herself, who appeared virtually for a duet of the 1995 hit from her smash album Pieces of You. As Clarkson reveals in the intro to the song, the "socially distanced" duet was in honor of the 25th anniversary of Pieces of You. Until sometime tomorrow, take care and stay safe.    ... View more
