MIDI? It just would have been a backing track, no different from Baba, WGFA, much of Quad, etc. I would doubt that any MIDI was used in '89.

This has been floating around for years...I've seen bits, but never had the whole thing. Supposedly this is a minor improvement over what's circulating, but I believe it is still taken from a copy of the original master. And...some missing audio is obviously spliced in from elsewhere? I honestly fin...

(when it favors the left, anyway) When I talked to Tom Jensen, PPP’s director, this morning, he was understandably in the mood to gloat. “These supposed polling experts on the conservative side are morons,” Jensen crowed. “Jay Cost” — the Weekly Standard’s polling expert who’d waged a number-crunchi...

My neighborhood:

Total ballots: 1,739

Obama: 1,509 votes / 87%
Romney: 191 votes / 11%

Baldwin: 1,478 votes / 85%
Thompson 221 votes / 13%

Pocan: 1,481 votes / 85%
Lee: 179 votes / 10%

Obama: 53/46 Baldwin: 51/46 On the other hand, state government is back under complete GOP control. In the space of five months, Wisconsin has re-elected a conservative hero, Scott Walker, and a liberal icon, Barack Obama. In the space of two years, it has elected its most conservative senator in de...

Does somebody want to explain this? The Professor also graphically reminds us that on election day 1980 the polls, according to Associated Press, held the election “too close to call”. Reagan won solidly. This is important because as we have written before Mitt Romney has premised his campaign on th...

Will any of this make a difference?

Doing some more brief listening. I'm not the Dylan expert, but there's definitely a significant difference between the sound of the BoB tracks on the AF and the SACD. I Want You in particular sounds pretty squashed in comparison, suggesting the vintage mix was used. It seems like a lot of Columbia m...

The thread about this disc over at SHTV is appearing and disappearing, getting edited, locked, and unlocked over and over. Luke, am I mistaken or did I see you post that you just received a copy of this disc before the thread was scrubbed and relocked? I'm just curious if it actually features vinta...

On a Dylan kick...revisiting this. Bob Johnston speaks: http://mixonline.com/recording/interviews/audio_bob_johnston/ Besides the fact that he's apparently mistaken about BoB, there's this: Dylan had had a falling out with his previous producer, Tom Wilson. What did you bring to the picture, and wha...

The biggest thing with the machine is it sucks everything off so it doesn't dry back on the record. Even if all of the "dirt" is washed away, having tap water dry back on the record is bad.

I think a non-worn 45, one that perhaps has never been played on/with another stylus, perfect newish condition stylus with preper weight/setup, these condition can get a styrene 45 to play without often/usual problems of the micro-line with styrene combination. I don't think so. It seems to be base...
