Dear Listees--Call it a  coinkadink,  or  what  you will, but 
recently--inspired by  the many
superior songs  with "moon," or "moonlight"  in
the title--I ddcided to  compile  a  CD  of  my
favorite recordings of such gems, with  the  following results:  (The CD 
collection eventually
grew to six, but I  think  the  first  one  is 
sufficient.)
