BFT #79 Sign-Up

[clifford_thornton]

OK y'all, here it goes. My first attempt at a BFT.

I will be hosting the files for downloading and will let you know more information once they are actually up, providing a link and so forth. If you can't download, that won't bar you from participating, and physical copies can be mailed out if need be.

Here is the thing: I will be away from 7/29 to 8/3 and so in the interests of sanity, the August BFT will be available after I get back. That dovetails with the beginning of August and will allow y'all to let Bill Barton's deep collection and knowledge sink in a little more.

I will try to appeal to all sensibilities, for sure, but any of you who know me know that there might be some free jazz / creative improvisation to deal with. If that's something you're really not into - well, I'm just warning you.

Thoughts on conduction / advice are welcome, as always!

Anyway, carry on... and thanks in advance.

I'm in for a download. Looking forward to it.

[Hot Ptah]

I need to ask for a disc. I am really looking forward to the free jazz stuff!

[.:.impossible]

[mjazzg]

taking the plunge for my first BFT. Also really looking fwd to the Free Jazz/Improv elements....load 'em up

Download for me, thanks

[Guest Bill Barton]

Please count me in for a download, clifford. Looking forward...

BTW, what happened to #77 & #78? Math was never my strong suit and obviously it's immaterial, just curious.

Jeez - the numbering error is totally my fault. Clifford was going by the BFT number I gave him. I know what happened - it basically comes down to me not being very smart. This will be BFT #77, of course.

[JSngry]

A DL for v.7x, por favor.

[NIS]

I would very much like to be included. Thank you.

[clifford_thornton]

Thanks for the enthusiasm, y'all - it will not go unheeded!

79 = 77 I guess...

[.:.impossible]

Oh. Sorry. I thought I was signing up for BFT79. Please disregard my previous request to be included.

[clifford_thornton]

You are included. The numbering is off!

[colinmce]

Sign me up as well!

edit: I will download.

DL please.

[Big Al]

I think I'll view comments before downloading, free/avant not being my usual cuppa tea.

[clifford_thornton]

Thanks, all (and Al!).

[king ubu]

I've missed many a BFT, but I'm totally unwilling to miss yours, Clifford!

Please sign me up for DLs!

[randyhersom]

Sign me up for a download. Been a while, looking forward to this one.

[Bright Moments]

Can we change the title of this thread to BFT#77 please?

Same here - this will be interesting. I think I can squeeze in a bit of listening time on my MP3 player, please send me a DL link.

[clifford_thornton]

All:

I actually ended up having a hell of a few days - home for one day, computer garbled, and had another out of town sortie over the weekend. Please bear with me. Hard copies will be sent to those who asked and DL will be up shortly. Many thanks!

[clifford_thornton]

Apologies for being off schedule (two trips at the beginning of August).

It's all done and will be hosted starting tomorrow. Physical copies are en route. Enjoy!

[clifford_thornton]

For those of you who are downloading, get it here.

I'll throw up the discussion thread mid-week just to ensure that the two members whose BFTs are in the mail have received them.
