  • Three RVG editions: Joe Henderson "In N Out," Bobby Hutcherson "Oblique," Curtis Fuller "The Opener"

    Also XTC, "Skylarking." 31 credits on the nose. Next!
  • At least they don't have to pay the dead guys much....
  • I am catching on to the method here, searching and re-tagging. I managed to get five complete Joe Henderson RVG remasters, assuming that Guvera will give me 31 again tomorrow, I'll finish up Inner Urge.

    Page One, 1963
    Our Thing, 1963
    In 'N Out, 1964
    Inner Urge, 1964
    Mode for Joe, 1966
  • @BT - even worse are the albums that disappear before you can finish them. I'm still waiting for Computer World to return!
  • DAY THREE: 31 NEW TRACKS!

    I think I'll pick up some Nick Cave today.
  • The "Lennon Legend" comp for me. I haven't had this stuff since LP days. You have to do a track search for "Happy Xmas," but it's there.
  • Townes Van Zandt, High, Low and in Between! Townes Van Zandt, High, Low and in Between!

    last night was Beach Boys night.

    Another good day on Guvera. I finished out Joe Henderson's Inner Urge and moved on to Hank Mobley:

    Roll Call (1961)
    Workout (1961)
    Another Workout (1961)
    No Room for Squares (1963)
    Dippin'(1965)

    Workout and Roll Call were a bit hard to find, better to search on Hank Mobley and page through several screens. there are a jillion albums called "workout"
  • I admire all of your tenacity in using this service. Reading the labors each of you attends to to score an album leaves me with the impression that it was designed for and by people who do not like music very much.
  • It helps if you are on the computer all day, and have a short attention span.

    I concur, it seems like only the most compulsive, I mean dedicated, users are going to have the requisite amount of obsessiveness, I mean patience.

    Well put. Or I'm insulted. I'm not sure which. Regardless, I'm going to sleep now to see if another 31 credits appear when I wake up in seven hours.

    Today's tally:
    Nick Cave's Let Love In (completed)
    Jimmy Smith's Prayer Meetin'
    Thomas Dolby's Flat Earth
    Chris Hillman and Herb Pederson's Bakersfield Bound
  • Notto look a gift horse in the mouth but damn I wish Universal would get on this. I really want to finish the Scott Pilgrim soundtrack and I'm runing out of Blue Notes I'm interested in or don't have.
  • I ran out of EMI albums that I want.

    Nothing on Virgin?
    Nothing on Mute?
    Nothing on Manhattan?
    Nothing on Caroline, Astralwerks, Fuel, or Angel?

    For you Roots Reggae fans, you should try some of these classics, they are part of the promo.
  • Dang, I could use a month of 31 credits a day on Blue Note alone...
  • Finished with XTC yesterday, filled some gaps in my Bowie collection today. I'm sure I'll find something for tomorrow.
  • Thanks for that rec froggie. It's going on my list for tonight.

  • OK, here's a good one: Cannonball Adderley, Experience in E. Three longer, "suite"-type large-ensemble pieces, as opposed to the usual Cannonball soul bluesifyin. This is otherwise oop, as far as I can see.
  • I've been getting a lot of lesser know artists on Blue Note, as well as some gaps of the big names - plenty of prime Horace Silver and Jackie Mclean to be had....
  • Yeah, I'm on elwood's side here - i browse this thread, and feel absolutely no regret for not participating. Opportunity costs makes plenty of free music way too expensive for me!

    I watched the intro video and was pleased to find that two Aquanet Rockers found a 2nd career that allowed them to continue to tease their thinning hair. /oh-snap
  • An unlimited supply. And there is no reason why. EMI!
  • Maybe I wasn't done. I've gotten some great stuff the last few weeks:

    Morrissey
    Talk Talk
    Sinead O'Connor
    Buzzcocks
    Built to Spill
    Nada Surf
    Stephen Malkmus
    Levon Helm
    Low
    Kate Bush
    Decemberists
    Magnetic Fields
  • Day 4: Insert joke referencing film in which same minor observance day is repeated over and over.

    Look kids - Big Ben, Parliament!

    I'm really glad we got them again today. I read Daytripper's list, including Low and Kate Bush (whom I specifically searched for at one point), AFTER using yesterday's. Now I just have to track down the 2 songs not appearing on Low's debut.

    EDIT: Those 2 tracks (Words & Lazy) are there under the artist search.
  • Well, after initial suspicion I've signed up and after the initial confusion wore off I've been able to supplement the collection with tracks from reissues of CDs I already have - Space Oddity 40th Anniversary, Tull's This Was Deluxe Edition, Floyd's Piper At The Gates Of Dawn Anniversary edition, so I'm happy with this. The search part is laborious, but I'm getting tracks I would have to pay full price elsewhere if they were available at all as non-Album Only entities. Thanks to all the Pioneers.
