also yeah the studio shot HAS to be front the cover. the seger with the mic shot is the back cover with track listing on either side.

Hey fellas, while we're at it here's the inside sleeve art I made for my humble edit awhile back

OK, so I objected that the studio shot lacked focus. Let's give it some focus:

I agree
love that we're all plotting out a hypothetical 2LP here
― sleeve, Sunday, 6 February 2011 07:47 (thirteen years ago) link
well, it actually needs to happen. Lord knows that 2009-2010 were all about these amazing 2LP comps of amazing African, Asian music what have you. let's all band together as the ILX community and create this thing. we should setup a PayPal address from some anonymous shit, and if everyone through in like 10 bucks, they'd get a copy of the 2LP
We just need ppl w/ skills, both design and ninja wise, to make something relatively easy like this happen
wish I could contribute, other than the $$. I am big IT guy but never design

probably is that we need high-quality vinyl rips (like FLAC quality) otherwise the vinyl will sound like the shit MP3s that are circulating.
― by another name (amateurist), Monday, 7 February 2011 03:33 (thirteen years ago) link
and by "probably" i meant "problem"
also the text on my cover art isn't perfectly centered. somebody want to re-do this and fix that? hey, anybody want to hook me up w/ a copy of photoshop for mac????

That album cover art is breathtaking indeed! I can't look at that picture of Hudson's without thinking "Stay alive with the MC5!"

there are ways to tell if a WAV has mp3 in its lineage...

― a led zep of one (Edward III), Monday, 7 February 2011 21:39 (thirteen years ago) link
Oh yeah - all the files were originally mp3 or wma. The WAVs were originally mp3s that I tried to de-noise a bit (and usually wound up leaving mostly untouched)

ballad of the yellow berets is a real piece of shit, glad this was at the end
― pajamagram sam (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 19:16 (thirteen years ago) link
On my copy, which Myonga sent me the Christmas before last, "Sock It to Me Santa" and "Ballad of the Yellow Berets" are tracks 6 and 7. The track order is otherwise the same as the one sleeve posted upthread.
I don't want to screw with Myonga's original tracklisting too badly, and endorse it over all others, but the version I made for myself has "Ballad of the Yellow Berets" and "Noah" out, with "UMC" coming before "Cross of Gold," and the whole thing ending with "20 Years From Now," which I love and prefer as a closer to this comp. But since this is—and correct me if I'm wrong—a more or less strict listing of Seger's singles in chronological order, that doesn't make much sense. And Myonga is the originator of this whole thing, so I defer judgment to his tracklisting. I also would love to see "Need Ya" in there, but it might have to be excised due to running time.
― talrose, Tuesday, 8 February 2011 22:16 (thirteen years ago) link
Feel free to mess with the tracklisting! I did so myself after sending the first few copies out (moved "Yellow Berets" to the end, just for m@tt!), and again after uploading it for the second or third time. And the version I play at home is different as well - I excised "Get Out Of Denver", which I've never really been crazy about.
― ilxor gets into jazz (Myonga Vön Bontee), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 22:50 (thirteen years ago) link
i realize i sounded ungrateful by talking bad about yellow berets...that's the only song i don't like or love...overall this is fucking great, so thanks again sir :)
― pajamagram sam (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 8 February 2011 22:55 (thirteen years ago) link
"Yellow Berets" fascinates me in a way...is this the first song to use the term "gay" as homosexual? First one I know of anyways...
― ilxor gets into jazz (Myonga Vön Bontee), Wednesday, 9 February 2011 01:49 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah. I really like it just as a flip side to the protest songs of the time...historically, at least to me, its pretty intriguing
― VegemiteGrrl, Wednesday, 9 February 2011 01:52 (thirteen years ago) link
if this were a CD comp it'd best be a hidden bonus track. you can't really do without it, but you don't want it front and center, you know what i mean? best to begin with 'east side story'.
― by another name (amateurist), Wednesday, 9 February 2011 03:48 (thirteen years ago) link
incidentally "my" version of the CD comp is as follows
1. east side story2. sock it to me santa3. florida time4. persecution smith5. heavy music pt. 16. 2 + 2 = ?7. ramblin' gamblin' man8. ivory9. noah10. lucifer11. highway child12. teachin' blues13. lookin' back14. bo diddley/who do you love15. midnight rider16. so i wrote you a song17. rosalie18. turn the page19. back in '7220. 20 years from now21. long song comin'22. u.m.c. (upper middle class) -- i don't actually like this one much, but i didn't think i could fairly leave it out23. get out of dener[24. the ballad of the yellow beret]
btw that beautiful morning lp or whatever the acoustic one is called is HORRIBLE.
