Hot Ptah Posted November 3, 2009 Report Posted November 3, 2009 (edited) It is time to sign up for BFT 69, my first Blindfold Test. This BFT is a mixture of songs I have especially enjoyed over the years, those tracks that have jumped out at me as I have played my albums. I tried to make the BFT something that could be played repeatedly for pleasure. I have been having a blast listening to the several "drafts" of the BFT on my car CD player. In the old days, I used to make cassette mix tapes that would be fun to listen to, and I tried to do the same thing here--but for my most discriminating audience by far! I have played the test to a few non-members of this forum, just to get their reactions. Here are photos of some of them as they have listened to it: Big Al is graciously taking care of the downloads, as I am more technologically challenged than I should be for my tender age. I will be happy to make discs for anyone who prefers discs. Just PM me with your mailing address. This Blindfold Test is two discs long, with a holiday bonus cut at the end of Disc 2.

Hot Ptah Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Posted November 5, 2009 Since my buddy Dick Nixon liked it so, I'm in. Download is fine. I remember all those Sunday afternoons we spent in San Clemente, listening to his collection of Saturn sides. Nixon was renowned for his solo piano rendition of Ra's "Fate in a Pleasant Mood." Here is a photo of him running through the "Nubians of Plutonia" album, reported to be his overall favorite: Quote
