Anyone here use a terminal-based Music Player?

Got rid of a music player I’ve used way too long (Museeks). It was just time.
Really not thrilled with the last 3 weeks of auditioning players. Some over the top, some too minimal, most in the middle. I “settled” on Gapless and Lollypop. But even those two are botching easy album art so it’s amateurish to me. No time to clean up after them.

TLDR–reading about and thinking about dumping the GUI altogether for a CLI player and just keeping it simple. Pros/cons? Thank you.
