A Word of Thanks & Other Matters...

First off, I'd like to give a huge thanks to everyone for visiting my blog. In a very short period of time, this site went from getting a few visits per week to thousand of visits per day. I'm blown away, folks. I'm very grateful that you all have taken the time to visit, read my blurbs, try out some obscure tuneage, offer your insights and refer others here. It's an honor to do this and your readership is the ultimate reward for the time I put in.

Secondly, I wish to thank all of the kind folks who have helped to contribute to the content here. Filling in the gaps and offering up things that I wish to cover here has taken some of the headache that comes from digging and digging for something that ultimately never turns up. Thanks to you (orchman, mamedia, higginz, micksguitar, fairplaybeach, gary_lankford and numerous anonymous posters) for your contributions here, whether it be uploads or just simple feedback. It really has given this simple blog some depth and I believe that, in itself, will help sustain this site more than anything else. Cheers to all of you.

I wanted to let you all know that I will probably be developing a sub-page soon which will be used as a repository for all the upload links that have been left in the comments. Any future links can also be left there. Initially, it was my intention to just integrate those uploads into the main blog front page (complete with synopsis and thumbnail), which I may still do...but I am tossing this alternate idea around. Just wanted you all to know what's up.

Also, if I DO repost your contribution on the front page, you'll notice that the upload link is completely different. That is because I clean up (usually just EQ or normalize) the files when needed and retag them the way all of my other content is tagged, for consistency's sake.

Finally, if for some reason I choose to delete a prior post (only non music posts like a wishlist req or other notes) and your link was provided there, I will make note of that information before deleting the post. In time, it will be reposted here in the proper context. I do this b/c I'm real particular about maintaining a clean and consistent look on the main page. Ok?

I hope you are all having a smashing weekend. I will be here tomorrow with a new batch of albums! Till then...thanks again :)
