Nope, Marty, you don't need a cell phone to interact with the Amazon Echo.

Hi Karen and all, I would get an amazon echo, but you have to set it up with your smart phone, which I don't have, and I wish they'd come out with an amazon echo that you could set up using your own voice, because right now, I don't have flash player, or what I am more increasingly liking to call it, flush player, and there are some of the mexicali stations and kiis fm in Los Angeles, that I want to hear, but can't without the flush player, and as of 2015, in adobe's lack of wisdom, they've made it impossible for us snow leopard users to get and download flush player, so with the security problems it has, I'll just not have one until I can get an amazon echo that I can set up without a smart phone, or as Tom Bodett would call it, a dumb phone.

You could get an Alexa Dot and plug that into your speakers. Then, you could request that she play, say, Guess Who, or 60s music or whatever, and she'll shuffle some songs for you. You can use her without a speaker, but she sounds much better connected to a nice system.

Well I think I had one guess who album. Plus it had the song him will you miss me darling or something like that but I can't remember the exact title. But a lot of my music got lost in moves. I think a lot of my records are basically gone by the board. But anyway maybe at some point I'll get another CD player and then I could get some of the stuff back I don't know. But trying to download it to the iPhone would be a royal pain. But the guess who was a really good group. I wonder if all of them are still alive. I mean I really like that group. The one group I really liked was bad finger but I think a couple of their members that are deceased now. But yes I meant the music but I just don't have anything to play it on. That's the only thing. Because both my CD players don't work correctly if they did I would be into more music. But I'll tell you the one thing I really would like. I would like the entire Genesis library all their albums. And I hope at some point I can get them. They were one of my favorite groups and I really wanted that for Christmas but I didn't get it oh well. I really like Genesis. And I do have stuff on cassette. If I can get an adapter for my other radio that's in the living room I'll be able to play tapes. Then I could listen to some of my music that my former partner Lester recorded. It was really hard for me because I couldn't play that stuff after I found out he committed suicide. Maybe I'll be able to play it because the grief is a little bit less. But hey what can you do. I mean Huber I mean I think it should be easier. But I would like to find somebody at some point to transfer all these cassettes to digital because eventually the tapes will be great and then I won't have them. But oh well what can you do. I'll just have to wait on that one because that'll be rather costly. But as far as the guess who I really like them. I think they were Canadian but I'm not really sure but I think I'm right on that one.

Hi, Karen,
Do you have Guess WhoâÂÂs Greatest Hits or an anthology? I have a Greatest Hits album but itâÂÂs really scratchy and would love to have a better copy if you have one.
Thanks so much in advance.

Hi all, as some of you know, I am in the process of restoring my music
collection from MP3 CD's, after losing a 2 TB hard drive! Unfortunatly,
CD's don't hold up over time, at least that has been my experience! So,
I have had several albums that would not copy from the CD, wich leads me
to this request. Does anyone have the Guess Who album called Running
Back Through Canada? It is a live album, and is fantastic! Thanks in
advance, if anyone can help!
Have a good one:
John
