Sounds like an effort to be in line with copyright term in the U.S. If adopted, will it restore copyright protection to material that has been considered public domain in Europe for a while now? That would negatively impact reissue labels like JSP, Document, etc., although I suppose that would be congratulated by many here.

I think home field advantage in the World Series should be determined by which league did better against the other league in interleague competition at the end of the regular season. Having it all rest on an exhibition game like the All Star game is fairly ridiculous to me.

They're only keeping alive 26 titles from their Takoma Records holdings. Hang your head and cry. It's theft from the public domain all over again.

I thought it'd be pics of Stacey Keibler, Miss Hancock!

Thanks for sharing this. It's still a copyrighted copy, but it's not an infringement to sell your used copy per the first sale doctrine.

It's not really jazz-oriented, but this year the Festival of American Folklife on the National Mall will have some great music from Texas: Western Swing, country songwriters, Tex-Mex, blues, Cajun, Creole, and Zydeco. Check it out! Free.

Gas prices will never come down, but maybe my salary will go up in the future to offset the expense! Planning to drive to Nova Scotia in August, first to the Acadian area along the Bay of Fundy to celebrate my Cajun ancestry, then to Cape Breton and Cheticamp to see puffins and whales and gorgeous scenery. I've never been through New England so the drive should be great!

FWIW, Fahey claimed his best guitar playing was on Fare Forward Voyagers. See these notes at the Fahey Files: http://www.johnfahey.com/pages/ffv2.html

Never been a sinner, I never sinned I got a friend in Jesus So you know that when I die He's gonna set me up with The spirit in the sky Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky That's where I'm gonna go when I die When I die and they lay me to rest I'm gonna go to the place that's the best Go to the place that's the best Jesus Freak Norman Greenbaum

They're Internet only albums. 1 and 2 are all taken from his previous releases. 3 has some outtakes and alternate titles for songs from his album Railroad. If you don't have any Fahey, all 3 would be good and represent a variety of styles. 1. Songs from Live from Tasmania; Vol. 2 Death Chants, Breakdowns, and Military Waltzes; and Old Fashioned Love. Boodle Am Shake and Keep Your Lamps Trimmed and Burning are with an old New Orleans-style jazz band. 2. Songs from Vol. 1 Blind Joe Death, Vol. 3 Dance of Death and Other Plantation Favorites, and Old Fashioned Love. His stuff can be hard to find. ETA: I got this information from a member of the "International Fahey Committee" on the Yahoo Group John Fahey Guitar

Sorry this happened! Take them out of their jackets for sure and dry them all off. Once they are dry you can clean the records with distilled water only and a soft cloth. Tap water has too many chemicals.

At work we've started using instant messaging as a way of getting quicker responses than with e-mail. I just look at it as cutting in line ahead of e-mails that were sent earlier, expecting more immediate treatment! Can't do anything about it though because my boss is a big fan of instant messaging.

Yeah but he's never quoted like an important comedian That's my signature from now on. What poetry!

Happy Birthday! Celebrate with some Henry Red Allen!

I wouldn't let this discussion reach Congress or constitutional lawyers if I were you. They think the only thing that gives incentive to create music is a long long term of copyright, extending beyond the grave!

You lost a lot! I am sorry for you and your family!

I think someone is referring to Jethro Bodine the character on the show and another is referring to Jethro Burns the mandolin player who indeed could play jazz beyond his playing with the comedy act Homer and Jethro. I have an album called S'Wonderful with Jethro Burns on mandolin and Joe Venuti on violin, Eldon Shamblin of Bob Wills' Texas Playboys on electric lead guitar and a steel guitarist whose name I can't remember.

And I'll be curious to hear a reasonable justification for the term of copyright in the United States.

Who needs copyright monopoly for the duration of his life plus 70 years in order to be motivated to be creative, or turn a profit?

Someone mentioned comedy teams? Not really stand up, but what about the Two Ronnies? Very clever! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq8ZnQ95cKk
