UPDATED: Playlist Views Manager v1.1
For macOS 11 and later only. This stay-open-and-floating script applet can set the View, sort and sort direction and, in Songs View, show/hide the Column Browser and its columns for a selected playlist in the Music app.
Latest version:
- Minor UI updates and performance enhancements
More information for Playlist Views Manager v1.1 and download link is here.
UPDATED: Block Party! v5.0
For macOS 11 and later only. Create a "Block Party!" playlist containing random Artists and a specific number of their randomly selected songs arranged in a row ("two-fers", "three-fers", and so on). You can restrict the size of the "Block Party!" playlist by Number of Artists or Duration in hours. Additionally, you can choose to use a particular Playlist as the source of tracks and include/exclude specific Genres.
Latest version:
- Accommodations for macOS 12 Monterey

UPDATED: Random Full Albums to Playlist v4.1
For macOS 11 and later only. This script will assemble a user-set number of randomly selected full albums to a playlist. The "Some Random Albums" playlist will be re-created on successive launches unless you choose to append additional random albums to the existing "Some Random Albums" playlist. (A "full album" is a set of tracks with the same album name, track count and disc number and where the number of these tracks is equal to the common track count; it will not select all the disks in a multi-disk collection, just one of them; accurate tags are a must!)
Assign it a keyboard shortcut.
Also see Play Random Album.

UPDATED: Assimilate View Options v6.1

The delete feature only deletes playlists; tracks, of course, remain in the library.

UPDATED: Playlist Manager v4.1
For macOS 11 and later only. The Music app only allows one playlist to be selected at a time.

(This script will require your permission to access "System Events" in order to run. Please see the Read Me RTFD doc.)
