Today I am thankful for the Twilight Zone and all journey here.
Thanks!
Thank you for Vol 553
Many thanks guys!
Wow! You sure have been industrious the last couple weeks. New Volumes have been coming at a pretty fast pace. I'm embarrassed to say how far behind I am. But I am savoring every note, and often listening to each volume 2 or even 3 times before moving on to the next. It's amazing to me that there are practically no weak tracks. Occasionally, there will be a track from decades ago that I did not really like much at the time, but hearing it now with different ears I can appreciate it in a whole new way. It gives me a lot of joy to listen to these. When I go out for walks by myself, "Do The 45!" is what's playing on my ear plugs. When I'm working in the yard, driving in the car, "Do The 45!" usually ends up being what I listen to. It's hard to wrap one's head around what a massive, and consistently high quality project this is.
Once again, thanks so much for these. Maybe one day I'll catch up to you!
Another volume of groovy 45s. Thank you very much for sharing.
Gorp - thank you for taking the time to write. This is certainly the work of an extreme obsessive. I hope everyone knows that this is extremely nuts. Thankfully I've been able to share my obsession here - and on youtube and my DJ shows (that aren't going on right now for the most part.)
I have a huge regret. I wish I never bought one CD in my life. I wasted time and money on them. (I have what seems like millions of Cd's)
The only thing worth collecting is vinyl. Lp's are fine, but 45's are by far the greatest way to enjoy music. As Billy Miller would say, you don't have the song unless it's on a 45!
Gyro, a wise Rock & Roll philosopher (Todd Rundgren I believe) once said that anything worth doing is worth over doing. Your obsession as you call it and your relentless attention to detail will help to keep this music alive for years to come. Your high quality MP3s will never crack, warp or wear out. If mankind is still here in 500 or 1000 years, this incredible run of Do the 45 collections will show people a side of what made all of us so lucky to live in the 20th century.
Cheers Gyro!
God! I've got a zillion cd's as well. They are worthless. You can sell them for pennies if you can even find anyone to take them. The plastic case that holds them have more value than the cd!!
I can't quite bring myself to sell them to some company or used cd store for a few pennies.
Vinyl may be the way to go. But I've always liked the ease-of-use that digitized music allows. I LOVE your digital compilations, and am so very happy to have 30 tracks which I can listen to without manually changing or flipping over a record after each song.
Do the 45! offers the best of both worlds. A stack of vinyl records easily accessible as a collection of digital files.
I figure that this series has well over 15,000 tracks by now. That is a LOT of work! I will listen to each and every track at least once. But I'm not so sure I would be able to motivate myself to listen in the same way if someone just dropped 8,000 singles on my doorstep and asked me to listen to each one, each side.
This series is a true gift, and a labor of love that is incomprehensible.
