i agree with what has been said by the other posters here ... more than 4 bullets per slide is overkill.
i would also like to add ... if you do not have that much experience with this kind of presentations it might be a good idea to ask a good friend of yours to serve as a guinea pig and participate in a test run of your presentation ... calculating the presentation time and testing this calculation is very important.
and ... regarding the actual design of your power point slides ... keep it simple ! ... you don't have to use all the colors, every font and all the effects - although i have to admit it's great fun to play around with all this effects. :rsmile:
why should i buy the download version of gabor szabos "spellbinder" for 12€ ... when i can order the cd version for 7€ from amazon ?
i'm not that stupid ! :rsmile:
must be the most expensive storage problem in the world.
you know ... looking at three pieces of cake makes you hungry but looking at three million pieces of cake makes you ... sick.
thanks for posting this interview !
interesting interview ... lou donaldson obviously has a very clear vision of himself and his music ... and he talks openly about it.
you sure know how to sell this stuff.
out of curiosity i did a google image search for "whale meat" ... that stuff doesn't even look like fish. in fact it looks more like "red meat".
well, since this is not about income tax declarations i think it's safe to trust german informations. :rsmile:
but ... the (american) bluenote page gives the same information: no new cover art for the shorter album.

as if ... as if european radio stations would play music from the early 1960s or the late 1950s.
i wish they would play some pop music from the 1950s or 1960s on a regular base!
and also ... what happened to social security pensions and social assistance benefits in the european welfare states?
this argument about airplay royalties for anonymous session musicians from the late 1950s who all started their career at the tender age of 17 and who now have to rely on airplay royalties from records that don't get any airplay looks just so ... shoddy.
the mp3-download-section of amazon (com) has sound samples from the desmond album.
samples are not very long ... but long enough to make my foot nails stand straight up.
could someone please put me in chains to keep me from buying a copy of that desmond album ?
i love desmond and i don't mind jazz artists covering pop tunes from time to time ... but ... all this overplayed kitschy simon/garfunkel tunes really scare the shit out of me.
i will surely get a copy of that burrell album ... i have never heard burrell in a trio setting before, so this one should be interesting.
That's a most interesting thing.
It's not CDs that suck, it's albums. And if you mainly want individual songs, no point in buying CDs.
This is a bit of a paradigm shift.
MG
well, i guess you could also call it the return of the "single" ...
you still can buy new pre-recorded 8-track tapes in the us ?
i always thought pre-recorded 8-track tapes had been pushed out of the market by pre-recorded audio cassettes in the early 1980s ...
