  1. Actually having a wife who plays guitar is good. She says, "You really need that new guitar you've been looking at" because she wants to play it too!!! The sister with the clarinet, sympathies are appreciated for that one.
  2. Music related? My wife plays guitar and synth, my little sister used to play clarinet. So I have music relatives.
  3. Perhaps when I was 18. I've gotten to the age where I look better with clothes on. Cue: "I Don't Look Good Naked Anymore" by the Snake Oil Willie Band. We learned that song for the nudist camp. I checked first and the manager said they had a good sense of humor.
  4. People asked me "What do you want people to say about you at your funeral" I responded, "Look! He's sitting up!" And they asked me how I wanted to die so I said, "I'd like to die like my grandfather, peacefully in my sleep -- not screaming like the passengers in his car."
  5. I really do play at a nudist camp once or twice a year. I wear minimal clothes, most of the dancers don't wear any at all.
  6. Long ago my hair went from here to there at first it was a scare but now I do not care no I don't use Nair i like to keep it bare stage lights make it glare and that makes some stare
  7. I'll answer that question,...... I've Got Love On My Mind - Natale Cole
  8. Rocks In My Bed - Duke Ellington Orchestra
  9. You could be right. Perhaps I'll double post it there Do you think anyone would care? Does it have a certain flare? I could do it on a dare It's not my usual lair Will people stare?
  10. One of my favorite Tchaikovsky tunes
  11. Europa (Earth's Cry, Heaven's Smile) - Carlos Santana Covered successfully by the great tenor saxophonist Gato Barbieri Two for the price of one! As a sax player who doubles on guitar, I had to include both of these
  12. Here's The Man - Bobby "Blue" Bland One of my first blues albums and still on the top of my list. IMHO it has the definitive versions of "Stormy Monday Blues", "Blues In The Night", and "Turn On Your Love Lights" plus quite a few other great cuts.
  13. Thanks, I know what to avoid. I've got a couple of StarTech docks that have worked for me. They won't hold more than a 3TB drive though, something about not being able to format it. But 2TBs are enough, especially when you can swap them out. Notes
  14. Leilani and I attended this concert when we vacationed in Prague. If you look carefully you might see us in the audience (since I have little hair on top, it's "Find Baldo")
  15. When Stan Getz plays a bossa it's as good as it gets. Me? I like them, but I wouldn't want to play nothing but bossas, after all it's fun to play blues, funk, rock, soca, reggae, salsa, merengue, bolero, disco, swing jazz, motown, rhumbas, and dozens of other styles too. My wife is my musical partner so we share the bossa duties ;) Notes
  16. A customer sent me a couple of MIDI files that he made with my styles. He wanted to know if he owed me any royalties if he fleshed them out and made a recording of it. I told him my styles are tools, and anything you make with my styles is royalty free as long as you don't give the style itself away. He's from France, his English is minimal, my French is even less so I thought I'd ask here instead of asking him. In the beginning of each song are the usual assignments pitch bend, cc 7 (track volume) cc11 (expression), cc10 (pan), cc64 (sustain pedal) and so on. Looking at his file I see these in sequence cc 100=0 cc 101=1 (in another file cc 101=2) cc 6=64 Now I know that if both cc100 and 101 =0 and are followed by cc6 the cc6 denotes pitch bend range But what if cc101 = 1 or 2? I'm hoping to learn something here (I googled and failed) Thanks, Notes
  17. Sorry to hear that. What brand did you use? I've been using them since Windows XP and have never lost one byte.
