What not?

Does this in any way represent "Public Domain"? No? Didn't think so... So what changed? When, if ever, was this legally declared, that V-Discs are Public Domain?

Is there a link?

Proof that only the strong survive!!!

Mighty well told, this one is.

Well now, That's a DAMN good record, that one is!!! 🦾 🦾 🦾 🦾 🦾

Was there ever an official ruling/declaration/whatever that V-Discs are actually PD? Or has this become an interpretational assumption that people starting using and it's just never been challenged? I do think it would be a good gesture by Mosaic to donate some small portion of the proceeds to a worthy Veterans group.

From 1980: Singing usually includes acting, and one of the things to act is vulnerability. Here, I don't think this is acting. This is real. Rest. In Peace.

Perhaps...but I've bern been doing 7 buck Bandcamp DLs of new musics (not all of which I love, now I know instead of assuming)...I already love Tchichai, if you know what I mean, and I don't really see this particular one talked about all that much. But let me know, please!

Marshall Allen his quietly rebuilt the post-Ra Arkestra into a sustainable performing troupe of no mean power. The last few albums have been quite strong imo.

I think that show is going to be forever underrated, just because of its rightly illustrious predecessor... Or did you mean an oral history biography?

The standup records were already part of the canon, but the late-night and the sitcoms were what created the giant, imo. The content was already great, but the timing...truly genius. And in place to the end. I guess it would be too conceptual for somebody do do a skit of a phone call between Bob Newhart & Shelley Berman...on a party line with Betty Walker.

A true giant of his art. Held in the highest esteem here. Bye, Bob.

Is the Tchichai a highlight?

Most all of us have contact info for him and/ or his friends. I'd like to humbly suggest that we respect his privacy in this public forum unless and until he himself speaks.

Sorry, those were separate items. A question about Byas and then a fantasy about the tapes.

Was Byas in good form throughout, like all the way to the end? The mouth waters at the possibility of the entire thing still being intact somewhere, just waiting to be stumbled upon ...and not thrown away.

I mean, I'm not the biggest Gary Giddings fan, but he's been there and done plenty of work, so hey. I'm certainly not dispirited by his selection.
