Big Al Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) Would anyone like to volunteer to lead February's BFT? If no one has anything, I have a Blindfold Test Greatest Hits that I put together for my own listening enjoyment years ago. I figured since we have a lot of new participants, it'd be nice to give them a taste of Blindfold Tests past. This is also for any other narcissists in the bunch (myself at the head of that bunch) to see if anything you put on a BFT made the cut! EDITED 1/31/10 DrJ is back and has apparently pulled a marathon session similar to the Miles Davis Quintet's marathon November 1955 session, and the two discs promise to hold the same quality of music for our enjoyment! So, come one come all and sign up! As you'll see below, DrJ will be sending me the discs and I'll be uploading. So, hopefully, by the end of this week, BFT 72 will be going full speed and then I gotta start putting together the "Big Al 40th Birthday It's All About ME BFT!"

At the same time, I'm willing to step in in a pinch if need be, just let me know. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Al, the Greatest Hits might be fun, if it doesn't put you out. I agree. And I'm not ready - turntable still at repairer's. MG Quote
Guest Bill Barton Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 So, I'm assuming that - one way or the other - everybody on the current list gets bumped ahead by a month? Right? Quote
Big Al Posted January 30, 2010 Author Report Posted January 30, 2010 Looks like we may be back on track. I just heard back from DrJ. Stay tuned for more details.... Quote
DrJ Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Sorry for my absence and general cluelessness...but thanks to Big Al I'm on track and will be able to lead BFT 72. I will get a disc with the tunes out to Al sometime in the next couple of days and I think he can post them, so we should be good. Edited January 31, 2010 by DrJ Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 Good to hear that. I'm in, by the way. MG Quote
DrJ Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 I made 2 discs worth of material last night...lots of fun. Not sure if you want 2 discs worth or just 1, but I'd vote 2 (of course!). Once I get Al's address I'll mail him the discs ASAP, they're all packed and waiting to go. Quote
Bright Moments Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 please include me in the BFT!!! Quote
seeline Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 i'm in - would prefer a download, if possible. (sorry I've been AWOL; haven't really had much time to get to jeffcrom's BFT 71, although what I've heard, I've loved!) Quote
Guest Bill Barton Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 Count me in for a download. Looking forward... Quote
Big Al Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Posted February 4, 2010 Bump for more participants. I forgot that editing the original post does not count as a new post. So, SIGN UP, Y'ALL!!! Quote
Hot Ptah Posted February 4, 2010 Report Posted February 4, 2010 I am in, and would like discs. The two disc version is fine with me. Quote

papsrus Posted February 4, 2010 Report Posted February 4, 2010 What the heck. I'm in! I've been basically a disaster at identifying much when I've participated in the past, but always, always enjoyed the music. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted February 4, 2010 Report Posted February 4, 2010 What the heck. I'm in! I've been basically a disaster at identifying much when I've participated in the past, but always, always enjoyed the music. That's the main thing. And sometimes you hear something you would never have come across that you've just GOT to get and, miraculously, you find you CAN! MG Quote
Big Al Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Posted February 5, 2010 The discs arrived today and have already previewed disc one. DrJ's done a fantastic job, even if there are a coupla tracks I don't personally dig (my own hangups; some of y'all are gonna be all over those)! Hopefully, I can get 'em uploaded tomorrow! Quote
Big Al Posted February 6, 2010 Author Report Posted February 6, 2010 What the heck. I'm in! I've been basically a disaster at identifying much when I've participated in the past, but always, always enjoyed the music. Download or discs? Quote
