[muglo] iTunes query

Until now, whenever we've left the iPod in its little Bose SoudDock and
let it play whatever came up, whatever came up was fine with us.
Everything in it was music we liked, from opera to rock to old English
music hall tunes. 
However . . . we decided to burnish our language skills a bit with the
help of a series of iTunes tutorials known as iSpeak (iSpeak French,
iSpeak Italian, iSpeak Spanish). It's a dandy series, 1,489 words and
phrases in each language CD, organized by topic and readily searchable,
with terms spelled out on the screen while they're being pronounced for
you, with translations. Way more useful than a Berlitz videotape. With
one problem: great swathes of these language lessons occasionally show
up when you want just music. You're listening to a whole long playlist
of Bach and suddenly after one series of the Goldberg Variations you
suddenly are treated to "Bonjour. Hello. Bonjour." "Bonne soirée Good
Evening. Bonne soirée." etc.
The stuff is organized by category (under Artists), subcategory (under
Albums) and particular word or phrase (Songs). We want a way to prevent
them ever playing at all unless we specifically enable them for a
particular occasion.
I assume the solution has something to do with putting them all into
one Smart Playlist, but I can't figure out what rules I should set for
said playlist. Anybody got an idea?
