Thread Name: Lyr Req: I Recall a Gypsy Woman (from Doc Watson)
Subject: RE: Gipsy woman
Thank's to Frank in the swamp. I'm running at LA FNAC to demand them "The Essentail of Doc Watson".

I've got and idea about "I recall a gipsy woman". Its feasibility depends on for hypothesis :

1 Some body has merci on me 2 The same body has the Lonesome Road vinyl, a sound card inside a internet-connected computer, with the suitable sofware. 3 This body connects the output of his vinyl board to the "line in" plug of his sound card. Then, "I reccal a gipsy woman" is sampled into a wawe file. 4 This file is attached to a message send to my e-mail.

If gipsy woman length 2'30", the size of the file would be 3.2 Mbytes (8 bit, 22 kHz, mono), about 30' of uploading at 2 kbyte per second. Blast it, that time is redhibitory.

I can think about a honest counter part to the one who would do that (I'm living in PARIS France, may be I could return a wave file of accordion by Yvette Horner, it is awfull to hear but quite typical french country music).
