Thanks for the pointers, Jeff. I recently bought a new groove jazz album, En Route by Four80East, and am familiar with its influences and similarly sounding groups. So I thought I’d try “four80east” in liveplasma:

…a reasonable result–one that could be enhanced further using an approach like Pandora (and others) use to refine recommendations based on further input from the user (i.e. learning system). I’ll have to give the ACM content (regarding cone trees) a thorough read before I can reasonably comment on that. Appreciate the collaboration as always!
