Everybody plays each other. That's all anybody ever does. We play parts.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Aimee, there is NO COPY of June and Johnny doing that song unless it is on some bootleg of a live concert version. The point is, not available in retail outlets.

The only album version is with her and Carl on some old albums of theirs and apparently his voice is not so great and it is quite a bit different sounding that what you heard in the movie. It is listed on allmusic as part of a box set, sample to listen to here: [link]

I may have the Sopwith Camel song on a bubblegum mix. Will check when I get home. But I should point out that David almost certainly has the limited-edition extended remix on clear blue vinyl with the lock groove.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Heh, I did have a Sopwith Camel record when I was doing the Bubblegum Book but have almost certainly kicked it out back into the general population by now.

I read their "about" page and still don't quite get it. You trade CDs you have for CDs you want. So, you send a CD you have to someone who has a CD you want, plus a dollar. And then you get the CD you want in return? But then you have to erase the tracks from the CDs you sent off your computer and iPod? And they have downloads, too? And the artist gets 20%? Huh?

Granted, I read it fast - but I don't get it.

I'm curious enough to accept an invite from msbelle if/when she gets them.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Oooh, ooh. I do love that Sopwith Camel song a lot, so I will be excessively grateful if someone does find it!

Oh, me too. I just don't think I fully understand their trading architecture. Or something.

here's how it works:

You list CDs you have (I am only listing ones I want to get rid of). Other members can search through member lists or for a CD directly, when one is found, they mark that they want it and all the people who have that CD listed get notified. Whoever responds quickest can mark that they will ship the CD. Pre-postage paid envelopes (I think) are provided by lala.

When you receive a CD, you enter that you got it and you are charged $1.49. $1 for the CD and $0.49 for shipping.

You can't start getting CDs until you list some to ship. And your ability to receive is always connected to you continuing to ship out.

They have language about members removing music from their MP3 players and iTunes once they are shipping it out, but as far as I can tell that is untraceable. They also say they do not accept ripped CDs, but that can't be traced either, can it? They ABSOLUTELY DO NOT accepted burned CDs.

I have no idea how the 20% back to artists work, but it is mentioned all over their site.
