Bug

Hi and thanks for helping me out.

DO I need to add

#!/bin/bash

at the beginning of this script to work and also, does it work recuresively?

My situtation is such that I have directory structure

/home/music/ARTIST_NAME/ALBUM/

and there are about 1800 folders (artists) in the music folder.

Again, my gratitude for the help
