[Zappa-List] Just Another Band playing FZ

2004-10-26 Thread Bart
Howdy Folks!,
after UMO Jazz Orchestra, I laid my sticky fingers on another curiosal disc.
This time it is disc by the band called Omnibus Wind Ensemble Music by Frank Zappa 
label Opus 3 Records (from Sweden)
This is Stereo / Multichannel Hybrid SACD and can be played on any standard cd player. 
So this is kinda audiophilac item.
The band itself is from Sweden and consist of over 10 mambers who all play acoustic 
instruments like allsorts woodwinds, brass, and  percussives. No guitar, electrics, 
nor rock drums!
The tracklist:
1. Inca Roads
2. How Could I be Such a fool
3. Revised Music for a low budget orchestra
4. Let's make a water turn black
5. The black page no.2
6. No 7
7. Igor's boogie
8. Be-Bop Tango
9. Alien Orifice
10. Dog Breath Variations
11. Uncle Meat
12. Sinister Footwear, 2nd movement
13. Brown shoes don't make it
14. Peaches en regalia
15. M. Ravel's Bolero

As the lineup indicates this is only acoustic music, sorta classical chamber approach, 
on rather softer and pleasant way of the articulation, without the rocky vamp. 
Some may find it a bit too polished or sweet, too delicate for Zappa likings (unlike 
Ensemble Modern which plays with proper amount of the balls -imo), tho overally it's 
not that weak as it may seems. Anyway it's on the lighter side, although the big part 
of the material itself is rather not lighthearted as you know. My overal impressions 
are rather satisfying, but far from enthusiasm.

And yesterday in Warsaw was a special concert called An introduction to Zappa, which 
I couldn't make it.
It was played by project band (of Grand Wazoo size,  you know) called Low Budget 
Orchestra - Niskobudetowa Orkiestra.
It was broadcasted by the national radio 1 and I could hear about 50 minutes of the 
show. They tried to play rather close to the original versions of selected Zappa tunes 
like Blessed Relief, I'm the Slime and Montana (with polish translated lyrics) or 
Peaches, to name a few. The whole show was longer but I don't know what was hapening 
later on.
What I heard was quite alright, tho the vocalist was rather far from Frank's voice 
timbre...hehehe
Unfortunately I haven't recorded it.

That's all for now.
Cheers
Bart

I agree as well... Even though I would really love some of this stuff.
We have a fantastic group here who, not only trade and swapp discs but 
also trade memories, ideas, help and advice.
If we're not careful it will end up like some mini E-bay, and the stuff 
that binds us together will be choked out.

OK... back in the toy box I go

  seeing as how this list is the vortex for a ton of cool vining and other
acts of generosity, the guy trying to cah in should maybe have secodn
thoughts and ply his trade elsewhere.
just my two cents, i have no choice but to respect others's possible
decisions to trade with him.
(i actually would like to have all this stuff on vcd, i currently  
only have
it in vhs, but have little to trade and no means to convert. still..)

[Zappa-List] Re: Zappa-Mothers 14 Hour Video Collection $49.95!

2004-10-26 Thread MIKE AHERN

at first i was totaly put off that this list was allowing the postings
of zappa bootlegs for sale. i so wanted to write a scathing letter,
but had a houseguest last night, and the opportunity never really
presented itself. i mean, thieving fucks like this guy are the reason
that zappa never considered taping of his shows to be a positive
thing: he knew shiftless and shameless people like this asshole would
be ripping him off, directly.
this music is no ones to make a profit from, except the ZFT. 
PERIOD
much to my surprise and dismay, when i signed on this morning, there
were several people willing to take him up on the offer to rip off
zappas music, and validate franks point that he was alweays getting
ripped off

of course i am talking about this:

i'm sure some nice people hooked this thief up to begin with. too bad
thier love of music was twisted to help line this guys pockets.
then SOFA posted:

 I concur here...
 Please folks, trading only. Selling of items purchased by you that would be 
 considered 'factory', or professionally produced is one thing. Making your own 
 massed produced copies of said stuff and selling it here is a no-no.  A first 
 offense is merely offensive. A second is grounds for expulsion.
 Thank you for understanding our vibe.

  yea I hear ya. I will not repost this sale in the future.
edit out some BS, and then goes on
I know it's a no no to attempt to sell on lists but anyway I have
 7 of these sets ready to ship ASAP. I did spend a lot of time on some of the edits I 
 did myself and many videos as raw mpeg-1 files had to be re-encoded aprox 6 hours 
 per for every 60 min to convert them to dat VCD format. I use TDK CD-Rs.
end snip

ok, so he sees strong objection as well as a warning from the list
owner (i think? Sofa?) not to do it again, OR HES GONE. what is his
reply?

 reply snippet
 I know it's a no no to attempt to sell on lists but anyway I have

end snip 

please note the quotation marks. 
ok, he said flat out that HE KNOWS its not right, selling boots, BUT
still goes on and trys AGAIN to sell these, saying he has 7 sets ready
to ship out ASAP. .
wow, a half dozen TDK CDR's... $50. what a sweetheart, spreading his
love of the music, giving so generously back to the community with no
thoughts about his own well being.
is this thief still on this list? 
people::  PLEASE do not support this sleazebag, or anyone like him. 
these things will circulate, in due time, believe it. 
also, does  anyone know his name? i'd like to be able to post his name
and any other info to a bunch of other lists that would be friendly to
zappa fans and open to the principles of trading music freely. make
people aware that the music they so freely shared with him, or would
share with him is now being sold on the very lists that this troller
has gotten it from.

and i'm not sorry for the strong descriptives used for this guy. they
are accurate, and a spade is a spade. its people like this asshole
that keep others from sharing, fear that thier generosity will be
abused, afraid thier efforts in sharing beloved music go towards
something they believe strongly against. i know i'll be rethinking my
membership if this shit is considered cool with some

 sending music that you love to like minded folks

 got caught taping Frank at the Brady Theater(1st
 show) in Tulsa in 1980.I had a desktop cassette
 deck(mono)strapped to my chest under my shirt and
 coat. I opened my shirt when Frank took the stage
 with Black Napkins or Chunga, I forget. Bald John
 saw me,sent security, took my deck and my bro in
  law to the front of the Brady and John appeared
 took the tape and crushed it in his hand then
 stepped on it. What a night though!! Two shows then
 I went to OKC the next day for a show at the Zoo. 
 Carry on mateys! Arrg!

Cool story! At least you got busted by John, the big
man. And it's nice that only the tape was crushed. An
old friend of mine was at the same Zoo Amphitheater
you mentioned and got some good pictures.
