Etc includes a reminder that I'm almost 60 .... eeek!!!!

It can take quite a while to find the CC music you're looking for and there seem to be loads of mini net labels that google likes you to be very accurate about before it will include them in it's results plus all these places where people get together to make music. Some of these you can find in on line music and culture mags.

Always .. but always save the addresses of places you like because for some reason or other it can be very difficult to find some them again a bit later.

Try mixing the words creative commons, free and copyleft in your word search .. don't always put them all in.

I tend to Google the Google addresses you come up with and any likely possible artists you might want to check out to find out what you can about them.

The more you know about the music the more likely you are to find what you're looking for because you know more words connected to the music that you can include in the Goofle search. Mix them into various patterns.

Check ur spelling .. last time I typed Google before the last time it was totally Foofle.

Other useful words to use in any of these CC searches along with CC etc are netlabels and music blog.

Etc.

Check links in links.

Whoops .. mistake .. but you're quite likely to be still getting more results when you weren't expecting anymore.
