Jim Alfredson: "In Memorandom"

[Big Al]

All these comments and not one mention of the terrific tribute to "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway"? Love how the title gives it away (no, I'm not gonna say it! There's enough "Lamb" fans around here to know which track I'm talking about!)

It arrived Saturday and I haven't had a chance to listen to all of it yet. I'm hoping I can get an hour or so to just walk around the neighborhood listening to this thru headphones/earplugs; just let it sink in, y'know?

[CJ Shearn]

I listened to that tune as I'm going thru "Genesis: The Movie Box", I definitely caught a lot of Genesis influences in the music though.

[Jim Alfredson]

Al is on the money! I knew someone would pick up on that eventually.

[Big Al]

All that's missing is the "phum-phum-phum-phum-phum-phummmmmmm!"

And yet I missed the spelling of the CD title. But I love it: memo-random! Brilliant!

[Jim Alfredson]

The phum phum's are actually implied; there's a subtle bass line that starts a few minutes in underneath the main swash of chords.

Just ordered a copy. Looking forward to some new music for the new year!

I must say that I really have enjoyed this CD--it is excellent--count on me to be onboard for any future projects of this ilk.

Thanks to a very friendly board member I'm owner of copy #26.

CD ripped, data transferred to musicbrainz.org and now off to listen...

[rockefeller center]

Favorite tracks: Jibber Jabber, Thunderglow, Psyche.

[Jim Alfredson]

Thank you!

I loved the audio samples, but when I went to pull the trigger with PayPal, they quoted me $20.00 for shipping. Is this a glitch or am I painfully out of the loop with shipping charges in the US?

[CJ Shearn]

that sounds kind of crazy, mistake maybe?

[Jim Alfredson]

Brief mention of "In Memorandom" in the Grand Rapids Press today.

Just now saw this. USPS changed their side-server implementation without telling anyone and it was spitting out all kinds of crazy exorbitant shipping prices. It's back to normal now.

Under 20 copies left of this disc.

[Jim Alfredson]

Price is lowered to $20. Signed copy. Only 16 left.

I'd like to mention that since this CD is paid for (which was my goal; to break even) that any orders will count as a "forum donation" for our 2010 fundraiser.

[RDK]

Sold! I've been putting off buying this for far too long.

[Kyo]

Finally ordered mine today.

Don't wait too long - only 10 copies left now, people!

[Bright Moments]

Next time you are home with some free time, please burn a cdr of it - my copy has a large booger in the middle and won't play. Do not send a regular copy.

[JSngry]

I have just bought me the copy. Please make mine boogerless by any means necessary.

Really! I mean autographing it is fine, but that other thing? Not so much.

Sorry, I thought this was a PM.
