So far, few have taken my new-Obama-continuum suggestion about solving the
glut of CD releases seriously. Maybe you listers will:
It starts with a 2-year ban on releasing new products, IF you've released
something before. If you have NEVER released something to the public, now's
your chance, w/o all the bandwidth being eaten up by Joe Morris, Anthony
Braxton, Damon Smith, Gino Robair, etc.
What this will hopefully foster (especially for those out there who say
they'ver heard it all) is a deep crate-diving craze by the general
listenership. It would hopefully incentivize the masses to listen to ALL the
albums by their favorite artist -- ROVA, Cecil Taylor, George Lewis, Richard
Thompson, Beacon Street Union, Splatter Trio, etc.
Go back and find the stuff you haven't heard (it's all up on Torrent, right?
Or drop some dimes at Amoeba, Downtown Music Gallery, etc).
And, of course, give the unheard a chance to be heard.
When I declare myself Emperor of these United States, I'll abolish congress
and get this process into motion...
