on the subject WC have you heard of "circuit bending" ? people shorting out stuff, adding resistors, diodes and such in making new sounds ?

I haven't had any direct experience with that other than accidentally, Doc, but it wouldn't surprize me that people are doing it. I've heard some stuff on college radio lately that sounds like they're pushing their equipment beyond the point that it was designed to max-out...I think it's Nickelback or something that is representative of the circuit-bending craze...I've also heard some stuff by The Chemical Brothers that blew my mind...they use samples and sequencers and combine it with sound effects and dance tracks...they ain't "playin'" anything...just running the machines...it's amazing what they're coming up with these days! Cheeers, WC1

I don't want to derail this thread, Doc, but Billy Mac has written some of the best lyrics I ever saw...not to mention the songs he put them to...he can be funny or serious and they're all great...we should probably start a poetry/lyrics thread...good, bad and ugly...Dangerous Bill'd be cool with that...and we'd probably be amazed at what all came in! Cheers, WC1

We also had Hendrix on the turntable yesterday(Rainbow Bridge). Today it's Led Zepplin(weird album cover has no title/song list or text at all - only graphics) Just listened to all 7 minutes and 55 seconds of Stairway to Heaven... forgot how good it was.
