Hi Matt, So good to hear from you. And, so nice of Alyssa and you to reach out. As luck would have it I have a new single out in the last week. A bit different from my usual fare. "Elegant Woman" is a piece written for string quartet. A combination of classical and film music. I was fortunate enough to have it recorded by members of the SF symphony. If you care to give it a listen here's a link on Pandora https://pandora.app.link/EWz3JFRhKQb Thanks for staying in touch and hope you are doing well. Kind Regards, Phil K.

Hi Alyssa, You have been so helpful, thank you. You asked that I check in with you if I replace my original playlist with a new one. I want to make some improvements so here's a link to the new version: https://pandora.app.link/S6HV1E0gggb This one is narrated and I pop in after every two songs and describe some back story and mention some of the well known musicians from Santana and others bands who contributed some fine performances to these tracks. You mentioned being a jazz fan so if you like this music there is also a separate playlist with no narration if you just want to hear the music uninterrupted. Here's the link for that one: https://pandora.app.link/E2vnLFnhggb Thanks for your ongoing support. Best Regards, Phil Klein

Hi Alyssa, I've done a little experimenting since I wrote last and don't want you to waste a bunch of time when there may be an easy fix. I have one other playlist which is basically the same as we've been talking about except it isn't narrated. All the links work just fine and on all devices. So I'm thinking something got corrupted in the making of the narrated version. I did do a fair amount of replacing of voice tracks and reordering of songs before publishing. Perhaps, something got screwed up in the process. It seems the best thing to do is build another narrated version and see if it works better than the existing one. I'm thinking it will. If you have time, please let me know what you think but I will probably try to get this done over the weekend. Thanks for all your help with this. Best, Phil K.

Hi Alyssa, Thanks you for following up with this. The link to my narrated playlist is: https://pandora.app.link/4N2iuDidOfb I have had 2 problems with this link. 1. Once the playlist is called up clicking on the play button and nothing happens 2. Once on the playlist click on the play button only the voice intro plays. No music happens. Even clicking play on the first song, after the voice intro, does nothing. To summarize my experience this is what happens, including 2 friends I have sent the link to: 1. Desktops and laptops don't work at all. Nothing plays 2. phones and ipads will work but only if going to the Pandora site and typing the name of the playlist into the search field. Link doesn't call anything up. I realize, now, that having Premium service eliminates some or all of these issues. But would like to promote on my FB page and am a bit nervous attaching a list of instructions. I'm afraid it may be too cumbersome for people to bother with but that's only a guess. Many thanks for your ongoing help. Best Regards, Phil Klein

Hi Alyssa, Thanks so much for getting back to me. I'm feeling a bit stuck at the moment and wondering if you might have a thought. When I cut and paste the link for my playlist it does come up on all devices. However, experimenting on 2 desktops and 2 laptops the playlist stops after playing the voice introduction. On 2 different iPhones and an ipad the playlist will play the voice intro and then the first six songs but this only happens if I go to the main Pandora site and enter the name of the playlist in the search field. Using the link just doesn't work. I also asked a friend to try on his system and he had the same problem as far using the link. It never came up. Do you think there is a setting I can tweak or some other work around? I would like to promote this on FB and have a good sized fan base but am reluctant to go forward unless they can have a experience. Appreciate any guidance you may have. Thanks, Phil

Hello,
I published my first Pandora playlist today.
When I play it back a commercial comes up first and then it plays for about 20 minutes of the hour long playlist.
After the stop it switches to some random, and unrelated, music and never returns to my playlist.
It does not offer the option of watching a second commercial and then resuming the playlist.
I've tried this on 3 different devices and the playlist stops at the same place each time and plays random music. Any work around this so the whole playlist gets heard?
Thanks for the help,
Phil K.

Hello,
I have created a Pandora playlist for the first time and want to promote it.
The playlist is active and when I share its link it just takes the listener to Pandora.
They can do a search and call it up but would prefer the link take them directly to the
playlist.
Any ideas on how to do this?

Thank you.
