I have always thought about doing a studio quality recording just for
fun, but I don't think I'd ever have the $$$.
Can't think of what I'd put on it, either. I've always wanted to do
remakes of 10cc's "I'm Not In Love" and Mason William's "Classical
Gas" (classical guitar arrangement, probably solo, no accompaniment)
but lack of resources has always been a problem.
just a little pipe dream, I suppose..

re 38: Have you ever thought of doing a 'living room quality'
recording, just for fun? With a couple mics and direct into PC
you can at least come up with a demo type thing.
My trip to The Guitar Center shown me there is a whole new
arena of computer geekdoom in their. Toys! Toys! Toys!

Ditto on the direct-to-PC recording. With a couple of decent mics and a
little mixer you can do a very nice recording on your own computer, and then
burn to CD.

I was a Jethro Tull fan when I was a wee sprout, so I'll pass this along.
Whoever owns the Chrysalis label now (EMI?) has started a new reissue
campaign for the Jethro Tull catalog. The good news is that
the albums THIS WAS, STAND UP and BENEFIT have been (allegedly) cleaned
up and (definitely) reissued. I haven't heard the new ones yet, but
my old CD of BENEFIT was on the hissy side. (My LP -- well er um,
it seemed to have one channel completely worn away by overuse last
time I played it....)
The bad news is that the album LIVING IN THE PAST has been withdrawn;
some of its contents are being dispersed as bonus tracks on those
reissue CDs.

Don't know. Presumably a remastered AQUALUNG, Tull's 4th album,
would be the next reissue to come out; the CDs I described in
resp:44 were Tull's first three albums.
In the past, the story has always been that a good-sounding AQUALUNG
has been impossible to deliver because the master tapes, which were
kept in Ian Anderson's personal custody, had deteriorated badly.
Guess we'll see what comes next...

Haven't seen one, but the US Mint had some groovy pictures. This is the
Tennessee state quarter, correct? Louisiana will also have a minor musical
theme.

Yes, the Tennessee quarter is honoring country music, with a guitar and
a fiddle. I've only seen that first one myself.

I saw one of the Tennessee quarters a week or two ago. I was with some people
who actually cared, so we spent a few minutes with a magnifying glass trying
to figure out if the piece of sheet music on it was actual music, or just
looked like it from a distance. We concluded that it wasn't, since the staves
only had four lines that we could find.

So the fence on the Kentucky quarter is not really a stave (staff)
with the tune "My Old Kentucky Home"??

Maybe the missing 5th line is the result of inbreeding? ;)

Most artistic evocations of printed music are unplayable. I've seen
four-line staves, six-line staves, imaginary or nonexistent clefs,
double-staves in which neither the number of beats in the bar nor even
the bar-lines matched up, impossible key signatures, the lot.

Well poot. I had thought the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame show was going
to be broadcast on VH1 on Thursday night. But it was Wednesday, and
I missed it. I was really looking forward to the Talking Heads set,
too. Did anyone see this?

Mickey's been enthusiastic about Patty Griffin; her new album
"1000 Kisses" has been the subject of a couple of over-the-top raves
by Dave Marsh. Thoughts?
