Message-ID: well, i suppose that it's time to de-lurk. to respond to the question asked earlier about recording from a commercial video, here goes. i had watched the metallica video "cunning stunts" several times, but didn't care for all the songs. more importantly, i didn't want to have to have a vcr handy every time i wanted to hear what IMHO is the most emotion-filled & beautiful rendition of "fade to black" i've ever heard. so, the problem was solved as follows: i took the vcr & ran it directly to the computer (audio, at least). i then played through it, using goldwave to record & edit the songs that i wanted (i.e.- removing some unwanted background noise, tapering the songs to fade in & out, etc.), then changed them to mp3 format, & then burnt them onto a cd. the result: a sort of best-of-live bootleg that technically doesn't exist. it worked well for me. so, to make a short story long, it's not a half bad alternative in order to get much-loved video performances onto a cd's convenience. on more thing: does anyone know where i can get a copy of the DT "acoustic dreams" boot taken from the rotterdam fanclub show? i'd love to get a copy of the whole show rather than use the above mentioned process to only get a few songs from my well worn copy of 5YIAL. does anyone else besides me think that their rendition of "lifting shadows..." on that video is hands-down the most beautiful ever heard? and please, if you know where i can get a copy, please no "mp3-burns" of the show. i believe that little annoyance was addressed in previous jams. thanks. -Ryften NP: "Imaginning" -GTR ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 9 May 2000 07:41:14 -0800 (PST) From: "Webmaster Ytsejam.com" To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Partha's Words Message-ID: on 5/9/00 Partha Mukhopadhyay, standing on his head in the rain by a cow, said: >About Marillion's "Brave": It says in the liner notes to turn off the lights >and play it loud, but I must be doing something wrong.....I keep falling >asleep. >Long Live Fish >Partha Partha, you echo my thoughts exactly. -Koggie NP: Fish "The Complete BBC Sessions" == Free Email Accounts at www.ytsejam.com _____________________________________________________________ This email originated from Ytsejam.com.

The newer Magna Carta releases have sounded really good. Two of my favorite CDs of last year were the ELP tribute, and the Mullmuzzler disc, and I thought both had exceptional sound. Both were produced by Terry Brown (I think... at least, he was involved with both). Coincidence? I think not. But the earlier Magna Carta releases weren't so hot. On LTE 1, Jordan's keyboard clips (creates distortion because it was recorded too loudly). I've listened to parts of their Yes tribute album, and it seemed to be lacking in overall clarity. Oh, and they let Devin Townsend get away with some HIDEOUS vocals on the Rush tribute album... :) Ryan ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 9 May 2000 07:53:07 -0800 (PST) From: "Webmaster Ytsejam.com" To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: FII Message-ID: >> too many metalheads on this list who cant appreciate a well-written song :) >Yeah, metalheads and elitist progwhores are a deadly combination, no doubt. >;) -Still, IMHO, FII is a weak release compared to I&W, AWAKE and SFaM -Koggie == Free Email Accounts at www.ytsejam.com _____________________________________________________________ Check out our community at... http://ytsejam.community.everyone.net and access the world's best search engines instantly at... http://ytsejam.search.everyone.net ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 09 May 2000 11:11:36 -0400 From: WB Henderson To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: MP3 CDs / Jadis Message-ID: Ryften wrote: > i then played through it, using goldwave to record & edit the >songs that i wanted (i.e.- removing some unwanted background noise, >tapering the songs to fade in & out, etc.), then changed them to mp3 >format, & then burnt them onto a cd. I don't understand why anyone would do this. If you have the original WAVs, *WHY* would you want to convert them to MP3 before burning to CD? Unless there's some spatial issue I don't know here (need to fit 6 hours of material onto 1 CD), this seems ridiculous to me. Even if there is a spatial issue, is sound quality loss in putting 6 hours of material on 1 CD really worth the $5 or whatever you'd spend more on 5 more CD-Rs? Oy...

There is no quality loss when you convert a wav to an mp3. I know that once i get my car MP3 player i'll be ripping and burning thousands of songs.

I stand behind it in principle, of course, but over the past 30 years (a little more than all my life, so far) it has not done as much to protect law-abiding citizens as it has to protect criminals. Klan meetings in the name of Free Assembly. Racist and xenophobic propaganda in the name of Free Speech. It makes me sick. ----- One minor detail: The KKK is not a criminal organization, and racism and xenophobia are not inherently criminal activities. *You* may not agree with what they say or do, and may find it incredibly distasteful, but no one voted you the keeper-of-all-that-is-wholesome-and-good. "I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." ----- There are many operative words in there, but let me point out a couple in particular: UNREASONABLE. PROBABLE. If the right to privacy is guaranteed ABSOLUTELY, then by the time anyone determines whether a search is reasonable or cause is probable IT'S TOO LATE. ----- Too late for what? What exactly is it you are trying to prevent here? ----- Orwellian, yes. Abuse? According to whom/what? The Constitution? The Constitution is an archaic document written by slaveowners who have been dead for 200 years. The country has changed in that time. The Bill of Rights should change, too. ----- Hahaha. The typical knee-jerk reaction. "They were old, white people who owned slaves a long time ago; therefore, their opinions don't matter anymore". Maybe not to you, but some of us *do* care. And incidentally (amusingly enough), the Bill of Rights *was* a change to the Constitution. You see, those archaic slaveowners considered the possibility that their document might need to adapt to the times, and supplied a prcedure to adapt it *right in the document*. Amazing that they had that much foresight, huh? ----- What is everyone so ashamed of? ----- I'm ashamed of people like you who assume that anyone who opposes opening themselves up to the world must have something to hide. I don't want anyone looking because the only reason to look is if you presume there is something there to find; the presumption that I am doing something wrong - in essense, a presumption of guilt. And another one of those founding principles that I believe in (and you probably also find distasteful) is the presumption of innocence. In other words, I have nothing to hide - but that doesn't mean I'm not going to hide it anyway. ___________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 09 May 2000 11:36:30 -0400 From: Robb Muise To: ytsejam@torchsong.com, Multiple recipients of list Subject: Re: female prog singers Message-ID: Ok, My gf was really interested in checking out female prog singers.

Who >was it that said "I disagree with what you say, but I will defend to >the death your right to say it"? Voltaire. I think this was mentioned once already, but maybe it was on a different list. As far as Steve's comments go, I don't know how they got past me the first time. We must defend the rights of ALL citizens to speak, no matter how "vile" their words. It's very easy to say, we should all be able to speak, except for so and so because he's sick, and believe we are defending liberty, or minority rights or what have you. But who is to say who is a criminal? Who is to say who is wrong? In the late 19th, and early 20th century, ideas like equal rights, and NON-xenophobic propaganda, were considered DANGEROUS and criminal. People would make the same statements you are now: "the bill of rights is good in theory, but all its done lately is support criminals who want to undermine the security of our nation." Now the other side is in power, and it' s the opposite that are considered dangerous. But is the left any more correct to censor the right, than the right was to censor the left? To me it would be total hyppocrisy. Lemme put it like this.
