Subject: RE: Independant Recordings Revued
I thank Susan for expediting this and I look forward to hearing the CDs from Mary, Alice, Kendall, Jody, Musicman and others. Burke, I asked the secretary of the PFS why Tune-Up is not on our website. She said that the publication is for the members as a privilege of membership. I do forward reviews to the artists as a courtesy. If one of my more technically competant friends shows me how, I'll be glad to post them on Mudcat. Before you send me your CD, you might like to know my preferences and prejudices. I favor traditional music. I am a folksinger, by profession. I am, therefore, sympathetic to folksingers of all cultures. I do not believe that a folksong is any ditty composed by a poet whase amplifier is on the fritz. If you write songs that bare your soul and "tell it like it is", you can submit, but the best I'll do for you is pass it on to others with more tolerance. This is not to say that I dont reccomend new material. If the songs are within the tradition, I will pay more attention. In any case, I do not pan. I only praise and reccomend. If I dont like what I hear, my lips are sealed like my juvinile record. If you need more information, you can email me at musicmic@rcn.com or pfs@pfs.org Mike
