It came out September 16. It would most likely be under TSO or the Christmas section (ask the clerk to find it for you...they gotta be good for something :). I just checked three online sites: www.cdnow.com www.cduniverse.com www.musicblvd.com And they all have it in stock (CD Now was the cheapest at $13.99). -- Mike Jones, email_address_removed __________ Cappy _________ email_address_removed Progressive Genius ( http://www.progmetal.org ) Progressive Metal Web Ring ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 19:37:16 -0800 From: "Paul Gregory Humm" To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: YTSEJAM digest 3108 Message-ID: > With the talk lately of the television noise in SDV, I have a question.

It is a very high-pitched noise, and not everyone can hear it (kids are more likely to be able to hear it than adults). Normally it is obscured by background noise, but if it is the only sound in an otherwise silent room, it is VERY annoying. To see if you can hear it, turn your TV on with the audio muted, and eliminate all other sources of noise. If you hear a high-pitched whine, that is the sound of the screen. -Paul ---------------- Paul Humm email_address_removed ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 19:39:43 -0800 From: "Paul Gregory Humm" To: email_address_removed Subject: my last post Message-ID: Sorry, that last post was supposed to have been sent privately to Brian.

I had not heard from these guys for so long that I was wondering. Great band. Can't say I like Tiamat much, though. I have WILDHONEY, and while it is so incredibly atmospheric, with the first four tracks working together almost like a DT style long song (and the reason I bought the album), I still find it a bit too ... "doomy," for lack of a better description. Slow? I'm not sure. I find I don't listen to the album that much, even though I loved it at first. I'd probably sell it to anyone who wanted it. Lowers your risk. "If I did that, I would lose him. I would much rather lose you."

I actually liked SLTS when it came out. I really dug Nirvana back then. I was looking at the way the two songs were written, to compare how they show their emotion. I was just looking for simple song and that's the first that came to mind. I think they're both good songs, but LtL is better crafted, thus giving it a greater lasting effect. (I can live w/o SLTS, but i still need a does of LtL every once in a while) Ernesto ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 23:11:44 CST From: "Brown, Neal Patrick" To: Subject: Yet another NDTC post Message-ID: Brian asked if anybody can "sense" when a TV or something is on....I've noticed that happens to me too...Very strange, and it drives me nuts sometimes if somebody turns on a TV then leaves the room without turning it off and I can still hear this quiet little....buzz, I guess. Also...re the long article about Atlantic....jeez, that's really scary isn't it? Shit, bands aren't beasts of burden. Good god...."work them harder?" *barf* that has to be one of the most crass things I've ever heard anyone say....kinda illustrates what MP was talking about in CM's post a few days ago....ya know, "we wanted FW but we got Big Wreck cuz of some political bullshit at the label..."

The piano on this album certainly sounds much more natural than on ACOS. His soloing just smokes! It's too bad that they don't make fanatically correct synth tab the way they do guitar tab. I'd snap it up in a sec, even if I'll probably never be able to play it. > Personally I think that Derek is amazing on > FII and I really like his style. that says it for me too.

Not just a TV, I can tell when almost any electronic thing with speakers is on... kinda a high pitched whine almost to me. I dunno.

To tell you the truth it is a really annoying gift especially when I'm not watching it!

Personally, I say yes, they are. For one, they do not degrade with play as tapes do, plus they have a better recording quality than a cassette. If you want a good acssette deck, you're goimg to pay about $250 for it. A MiniDisc recorder costs ya about $300 for the cheapest one, which is still better than any cassette I've heard. Plus a MiniDisc is re-recordable. You can delete and re-record any track and not have to re-record the whole disc. I've only seen Sony make the componant systems, but Aiwa has a shelf-system out. SOny has three component MD decks out, coming in at $300, $500 and $1300. The $1300 model being the ES. The $500 model has an extra optical in/output. I hope this helps ya out!
