mikeweil Posted November 12, 2011 Report Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) Dear BFT fanatics, I tossed around themes and ideas for about half a dozen different BFTs for a year now, but I decided (and your poll votes encouraged me a lot!) it will be all vocal, ca. 100 minutes, download links will come by the end of the month via pm and perhaps be posted here as well. (Jeffcrom will get them sooner to mail discs to any member requesting this format). Please post your download requests here - I'm still working on the compilation, but I guess I will manage to upload it myself. Participants so far: king ubu seeline Noj Bright Moments Hot Ptah jeffcrom Pete C Hardbopjazz to each his own alex. Big Al NIS Thom Keith chuckyd4 Edited December 6, 2011 by mikeweil Quote
king ubu Posted November 12, 2011 Report Posted November 12, 2011 going for all vocals - guess that's one of your planned things... would be too bad if you had to mix up two of them into one! Quote
mikeweil Posted November 12, 2011 Author Report Posted November 12, 2011 Well, it got longer and longer when I had the idea of alternating instrumental and vocal tracks ... first it was just a few vocal tracks thrown in, but then I remembered all the other nice vocal tracks I had thought of in recent months. Right now I'd favor an all vocal BFT myself. Quote
mikeweil Posted November 13, 2011 Author Report Posted November 13, 2011 Okay, it will be all vocals. Thanks for voting, poll closed ... Quote
mikeweil Posted November 13, 2011 Author Report Posted November 13, 2011 ... no interference with BFT 92 intended, of course - just now I'm listening to it myself. Quote
Noj Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 I'm game for a download too, if only to hear more vocalists. It's an area I've scarcely scratched the surface of. Quote
Bright Moments Posted November 14, 2011 Report Posted November 14, 2011 please include me for a download! thanks!! Quote
mikeweil Posted November 14, 2011 Author Report Posted November 14, 2011 (edited) I will post a download link in two weeks. I selected roughly 90 minutes of music, and made high quality MP3 transfers, now I have to settle for a track sequence .... Participants so far: king ubu, seeline, Noj, Bright Moment, Hot Ptah, jeffcrom, Pete C, Hardbopjazz Edited November 19, 2011 by mikeweil Quote
JSngry Posted November 14, 2011 Report Posted November 14, 2011 Are we talking only "jazz" vocals here, or will there be an assortment of great singers in a variety of tasty settings and contexts? Quote
mikeweil Posted November 15, 2011 Author Report Posted November 15, 2011 It's all "jazz" vocals, with two or so leaning to other genres bordering on jazz. Still waiting for two CDs to arrive here to add two more tracks. If I get them in time, there will be a sub-theme ... Quote
Hot Ptah Posted November 16, 2011 Report Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) I will need a disc. I definitely want to participate. Edited November 16, 2011 by Hot Ptah Quote
mikeweil Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Posted November 16, 2011 You will need two discs, as it will be about 100 minutes of music - we'll see you get them. Quote
jeffcrom Posted November 16, 2011 Report Posted November 16, 2011 You will need two discs, as it will be about 100 minutes of music - we'll see you get them. Send me your download link as soon as you have it, and I'll send Hot Ptah his discs. Quote
Hot Ptah Posted November 16, 2011 Report Posted November 16, 2011 You will need two discs, as it will be about 100 minutes of music - we'll see you get them. Send me your download link as soon as you have it, and I'll send Hot Ptah his discs. Jeff, That is super nice of you. Thanks! Bill Quote

Pete C Posted November 18, 2011 Report Posted November 18, 2011 I'm interested. Will the link come via PM? Quote
Big Al Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) I'm in, but I can't guarantee I'll participate. Jazz vocals usually aren't my thing, but I trust your good taste enough that it will at least be worth a listen! Edited to add: download please! Edited November 22, 2011 by Big Al Quote
lipi Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 A download for me, please. Thanks! Quote
Bright Moments Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 i am looking forward to this one!!! Quote
mikeweil Posted November 22, 2011 Author Report Posted November 22, 2011 Gladly the last disc I wanted to include a track from arrived today - I think I will have the sequencing done by the weekend. Quote
NIS Posted November 28, 2011 Report Posted November 28, 2011 May I be included with a download, please. I am not a big jazz vocal fan, but maybe you will convert me. Thanks. Quote
