Thanks everyone!

124 The White Stripes - The Gift of the Magi/Silent Night

I've posted that one already - in the Merry Christmas EP zip. (I can post it again if needed)

NOT the record itself but some info regarding the Meow 7'' plus a nice piccy of the sleeve.

It may help in presenting a lead to somewhere.....

Sorry for delay in those other tracks but I've had a shitty day and can't be arsed to do all the processing. Maybe tomorrow. Yes they are the eb*y records in question Patita. I've not uploaded yet because I had trouble getting my turntable to run at the correct speed. It's working now though still temperamental. Needs stripping down and having a good clean and maybe replacing the belt. Anyway I uploaded the Cheeze and Roy Head as you will have seen but the eb*y 45's have a LOT of surface noise which required a little software assisted 'cleaning'. I might add some 'off-topic' records later. I've got some great records here as a result of Peel. Maybe I'll do a podcast-type-thing - always fancied the idea.

‹(-¿é)›      

Ooh, a podcast! That would be very keen--please let me know when you do get it together.

Don't feel pressured, Domestic Empire--we know you have them, and that vinyl ripping can be a delicate art (says one who has a pile of about 20 things sitting here waiting to be ripped). We've got many others to find in the meantime!

Would anyone like a load of folders?

You know, with the numbers, artist names etc?

I can (I think) make a zip file,then you can move files you've got into them.

Thanks all the same Mark but personally I'm keeping everything in one folder to see exactly what I have and be able to dive in with a media player and hit random. Though I still sort certain things into sub-folders on my drives I've found that recently, (it could be an age thing), Im losing track of things down to how they're compartmentalised.

Incidentily, and perhaps somewhat paradoxicaly, there is a great little piece of software that's free and doesn't require any installation called File Sieve that will "..take the files from a directory and copy or move them into a new folder, while creating subfolders from A-Z and sorting the files into them based on their name (first letter)." Quicker than you can say 'compartmentalisationaly-challenged' or, 'bollox that was quick'.

The guy is a very active developer and it's worth checking out his other software.

> Would anyone like a load of folders?
> You know, with the numbers, artist names etc?

it does kinda annoy me, the thought that people will upload things that require everyone else to rename, mp3 tag and file and that mark's idea is something we needed but i guess it's too late to impose some kind of scheme now. (don't even get me started on the rar files 8)

(and is it a windows thing that people like having lots of folders with 2 or 3 files in each? i find one directory with lots of (well named) files much easier to use - less clicking on those tiny open / close boxes in directory trees, less very long path names)

no sign of carrier pigeon or the kindly Amazon elves and no time last night to extract the sirens. maybe tomorrow. (although it's melt banana tonight so...)

Well, I really just did this on a quiet moment, along with the moving in of mp3s and opening zip files etc.

I've been plotting stuff on a spreadsheet...
http://s43.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2TPV20TBI92KM14I8EOAIHNFWT

Nice one!

ooh, I like the spreadsheet. thanks mike!

That's OK. Three more fields need to be shaded in green, though: C115, A118, C118.

Sorry, I thought someone else had uploaded the Meow single. I'm a fast scroller and this thread is pretty complicated with all the lists etc. I'll put it up tonight, fer sure.

Excellent spreadsheet Mike - that makes it really easy, thanks. I noticed that B127 also needs to be filled green.

MHZ - "Secret Santa"

http://s42.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=22NCBUM7OKOUB0VR4HIU5YRLDG

just noticed--the XL-Capris B side is "Dead Budgies"
Looks like it was released on CD:
inner city sound 012cd
Killer Sounds Volume 12
In Another Place At Another Time
Australian alternative independent singles 1979-'83

The Misunderstood B side - "Who Do You Love"

http://s50.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=39WDXDHDQUXJ31DS3ME73T06T7

Upthread Patita mentioned not being able to find info on the Yami Bolo B side. No lie! I've spent the last 1/2 hour trying to find out what it is -- finally sent an email to the Yami Bolo website asking them. If they don't know we're off the hook.

Here is Meow - Katnip ep.

The tracklisting above (and on the record sleeve) is wrong. This is correct.

Side 1: Kat Nip, One Nite Stand, Anthem
http://s7.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=09N0HL1MJ33QZ1XUJ86GHI7KYT

Side 2: Kill Kill Kill, One Nite Stand, Boy Groupies
http://s7.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=36PTPPJ9PQPB61VGFCJCZ36KI4

Where are they now file: Tobey (guitar/vocals) is in The Gay, Neko (drums) is being Neko Case and you can see some charming pictures of CC (bass/vocals) here http://www.thesmugglers.com/beez_chapter_2.htm in India with her other half, Beez of the Smugglers.

Sorry, Side 2 is Kill Kill Kill, Catastrophe, Boy Groupies.

Also, Side 1's YSILink shows side 2's title and vice versa (or something), I don't know if the track titles match the music or what.

Anti-Social - Teacher Teacher (via Soulseek)

http://s5.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0RK146GMNSL8N3JBWRW5P6CTU4

(and having ragged on people who don't tag the files before uploading them only yesterday i find that the tag i added to 021 last night in xmms isn't appearing in winamp. id3 version numbers? oh well)

Sipho Bhengu seems like a hard man to pin down--here's some information on him:

He died in the middle of a concert a couple years ago:

The assassinated mayor of Mbabazane (Imbabazane) has the same name, so searches are a little tricky. Anyone have some South African connections?

Can someone repost the mighty avengers tracks please?

We only have the A side so far, but here you go.

THis is a stunning project here. I am on thee bandwagon!! My prob is everything prior to about five days ago has expired, save the torrent and the megaupload, both of which are currently whirring away. I suspect that many of the tracks in the megaupload are the same as many of the tracks as the torrent, however.

There's supposed to be an updated torrent at some point, eh? I've sort of lost track of exactly what's going on.

An updated torrent would be good for people coming to this for the first time. But I think another torrent -- without anything from the first one -- should be made available for people who already have the first one. Downloading hundreds of megs all over just to get 15 new songs...

Yeah, Tracer, I had considered the idea of doing an "update" version of the torrent. I think it's a good idea. Just don't have the time right now.

Yeah, Tracer, I had considered the idea of doing an incremental update version of the torrent. I think it's a good idea. Just don't have the time right now.

Documentary is Monday night (14th), Channel 4, 11:10.

"23:10 John Peel's Record Box [subtitles]
In a small, battered wooden box, John Peel kept a precious selection of 7-inch singles that meant more to him than any of the others. This one-hour special reveals the contents of this box, providing a unique insight into the eclectic tastes of the renowned DJ and broadcaster."

A small token of gratitude for my fellow collectors in respect of all their dedicated work.

Don't ask me to repost please because I'm clearing out my drives and this goes back into 'cold storage'! If only ten percent re-upload that should probably be enough for the regulars here - same principle will apply when I begin uploading more at j.p.everyday. I have faith in community (",)

Is there any chance that one of the folks who's actually able to see the documentary could record it and share with us locationally challenged (perhaps via a torrent)?

DomesticEmpire, you spoil us! Many thanks!

I've got the torrent now, but its numbers don't match with alex in mainhattan's system nor with the Times article!! waaah. In any case, I think the torrent actually goes up until ALMOST a week ago, which means I can be as up to date as anyone on this page can possibly be by just sitting around and letting everyone else do all the work of hunting these things down. I have, however, done the work of renumbering everything in the torrent to match alex and the times' way.. i'll upload what i've got somewhere, if people would like?

xposts: wow, neat! unfortunately, YSI is giving me SERVER BUSY errors on every link i click GERR HATE HATE HATE.

hmm strange, that last link works fine, the others still say busy

aaaand it's back

altho, cristian, i've tried two unrar programs now, and your .rar files won't expand in either of them

RAARRRRR

could anyone repost

Andre Williams & 2 Star Tabernacle - Lily White Mama & Jet Black Daddy
Larry Bright - Mojo Workout:
Lightnin' Hopkins - Glory Be
The Nightcaps - Nightcap Rock
Big Stick - Hell on Earth
Mr. Airplane Man - Hangin' Round My Door

or am i being terribly rude and self-centered and there's another distribution method i haven't picked up on yet?

i have to imagine the white stripes-heaviness of this box is the result of some story that may forever remain obscure.

cristian, forget it, the rars are fine

think i need to cool down maybe

ooh and stoecker with the save! terrific. more than just one second of the electro hippies! although that might be just the thing to have in the midst of a mammoth comp like this. when i was first reading this thread, i must admit i was like "pah, spreadsheets! where you put the 'the'" -- ridiculous! -- but you can see how canons are formed -- so we can have some way to keep track of things. my own file organization pet peeve -- that i like everything in one massive folder -- is getting scratched nicely, here, too
