How to add playlist:
Note: As I was doing this I found I went down many rabbit trails and had to undo many things that I tried that didn't work and did something completely unexpected. There is also the possibility that you might have a older or newer version of the blogspot page so that might make a difference also
A. Go to playlist.com (I guess there are other websites that do the same thing but this is the one I tried.)
B. Sign up(you have to create a user name, password, etc)(make sure you write it down somewhere as you end up with many different user names and passwords and you need to differentiate between your blogger id, playlist id, email id, etc, etc, etc)
C. I find that my blog has so many different ids, user name, email address that I get confused sometimes. My blog is called “Field Newsletter”, you get to it by going to kfieldwfield@blogspot.com. I sign in by using my ken_field@yahoo email address with it’s separate password. It gets edited on blogger.com. Can anyone make sense of all that?
D. Click share my playlist (I'm assuming that you have created a playlist)
E. In the middle click “Get Code”
F. Then it asks you where to send the code, blogger, facebook etc., click blogger. It will ask for your user name, user id and password.
G.
1. Go to www.blogger.com/start, Sign in, (There should be 4 tabs postings, settings, design, Monetize.) Edit design
3. click On design tab, and you will be on default page elements. Click, add gadget, where you want the playlist to appear. Click html/java. Put in the name that identifies your playlist, ie youngergrama, eternityforme, etc. Click save.
4. I think if you sign out of blogger and then back in , the playlist should be there.
5. I hope I didn't forget any steps but that is the gist of it all.

I did it!!!
Raining cats and dogs so had time to play on getting the music playlist added to my gadgets. I'm going to itemize a list on what I did and then add it to my next blog so that you might add a playlist to your blog without spending 4 frustrating hours doing it. Bye for now.
High Tech stuff
I have been trying to add music to this blog and it is extremely frustrating as you almost need to be a programmer to do it. Persistence will will out I'm sure. Further post will let you know the procedure..
