I didn't like how I couldn't see the track name and artist when using the iTunes Keyboard Control blueprint triggers. The keyboard controls don't work well with a large iTunes library on shuffle.

Yes, you can add an iTunes Growl notification for track changes, but that is *always on*. I only want to see the track name when I'm changing the track "blindly" - not when iTunes is in the foreground! So this blueprint adds an AppleScript to the keyboard triggers to display the artist and track name (and album art when available) with Growl. Since this is a custom script, anyone can edit the source to suit their own imagination. Suggestions are welcome.
