To facilitate testing I've created a much smaller library (5116 tracks)
and scanned it.  Everything now seems to be working fine and I was able
to browse the customscan_track_attributes table using SQLyog and
confirm that the STYLE, MOOD & THEME tags have been read and each
unique comma separated descriptor for each populated into the table. 
:) I'm listening to a perpetual singer/songwriter playlist as I type
this :)

A question to aid my understanding if I may:
to benefit most from "Random for mixed tags" playlists I should be
creating as many variances as I like and naming and saving them
accordingly for reuse whenever the mood strikes me?

If I don't select a STYLE/THEME/MOOD to include and/or exclude I
presume that the attribute is simply ignored in the construct of the
SQL statement - eg if I select only STYLE = Singer/Songwriter and don't
select anything in the THEME and MOOD listboxes the resultant SQL
statement ignores THEME and MOOD as criteria?
