From: The Fooles Troupe Real Audio is not my cup of tea, unless you know of an easy way to download the files in the background. There is a complicated manual hack, but it's a lot of futzing around, and some sites seem to be able to stop that. I prefer direct links to mp3 files. |

From: Joe Offer Hi, ho, Silver - If you use our Filter and look for Record Lady and set the age back, you'll see that Rose the Record Lady was shut down by the Copyright Cops. It's unlikely that she'll be able to return. -Joe Offer- |

29 Oct 05 - 10:07 PM (#1593496) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: GUEST,.gargoyle Try the United States Library of Congres "Way Back Machine."
You will only get "captured" slices from past sample dates but it is better than null.
ANYTHING (good, bad, embarassing) you have EVER posted onto the "Internet" is available, and archived somewhere. (along with e-mails, addresses, URL portals, and with connections to "alias identities.") Not paranoia, just confirmed fact, recognized over a decade ago.
My files are full of letters NEVER sent....when you realize that some undergraduate psychology student may choose to do a computer assisted "analysis" of gargoles...(since the field is smaller than gonzales, or gargoyles)....you tend to temper the tongue.

From: wysiwyg New stuff only, but .mp3's are embedded in the top-20 lyrics pages and these show up in your temporary internet folder if you have that set to keep things for a bit. Norton flagged a piece of adware there among the stuff I went through, but nothing's really free anywhere. CLICK AT YOUR OWN RISK ~Susan |

29 Oct 05 - 11:06 PM (#1593537) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: Bill D The only real way to get a lot, now that The Record Lady is kaput, is to ask in newsgroups.. maybe alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.country If you are not familar with newsgroups, or your ISP doesn't carry them, there are services like Giganews that you can buy time on.... (I got most of what The Record Lady had 5-6 years ago, when the getting was good. The copyright police sure overdo their zealousness) |

30 Oct 05 - 09:57 PM (#1593974) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: The Fooles Troupe BTW, the Wayback Machine has now blocked the Record Lady site contents. The Copyright Police/Pirates are sure thorough... I think of them as a sort of Pirate too, you know... The original Artists don't get any extra benefit, it all goes to the Corporate Profits, which is why new types of 'Copyright' systems have now sprung up. And it's interesting how 30 year old Pop/Rock Top 10 recordings are still pushed at full price (AUD$30) - and 'how the artists are forced to renegotiate a lower rate when a 'reissue/compilation' is made... |

23 Dec 06 - 11:17 PM (#1917933) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: GUEST The Record Lady was not shut down by the "copyright cops". She shut it down herself because she couldn't afford to keep the site of without financial help. She asked, and asked, and asked for donations, but no one would help. So she shut it down. It was NOT a copyright issue. |

23 Dec 06 - 11:29 PM (#1917938) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: Arkie While Guest may be correct, the reason given at the time the Record Lady's site was shut down was threats concerning copyrights. |

14 Jun 09 - 09:28 PM (#2656523) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: Melissa I checked archive.org to see if they had any Roland Bolduc recordings..no luck. Keep popping this thread back up when it gets low on the list for a few days, Zack. Sometimes it takes a while to catch the right eyes. Good luck, M |

15 Jun 09 - 12:15 AM (#2656596) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: GUEST,DWR Glad to see you're back to check, Zack P. I have sent out a few queries to people here who might possibly be able to help. I also looked in several likely places and had no luck. (Not yet, anyway!) In the meantime, do what Melissa says. Every couple of days, give this thread a boost back to the top. Sooner or later, it's bound to be seen by someone who has what you want. Dale |

21 Nov 09 - 07:25 AM (#2770366) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: GUEST,giovanni That looks like a useful site for searching down stuff, but the essence of Rose (and Nancy) is just the joy of retrieving old music and actually listening to it. I always hated Rose's use of .ram files - which are really just a link to the original file. Nancy uses wavs so you actually download the file, rather than just a link to it. The quality seems very good too. Bless her. |
|
21 Nov 09 - 12:40 PM (#2770555) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: Bill D Rose originally had 2 links...one to the .ram, and one to the .ra file, so you had an easy choice. When traffic got heavy, she changed the access plan to ease strain on the bandwidth . Nancy's site looks interesting, but weighted toward more current 'country' music, whereas Rose had mostly the older stuff. I will browse thru Nancy and see what is there. Thanks, Giovanni. |

21 Nov 09 - 09:43 PM (#2770868) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: GUEST,giovanni "weighted toward more current 'country' music" I agree, but in my search for the whole Hank W catalogue I found several tracks new to me. Still some classic tracks missing though! giovanni |

22 Nov 09 - 12:30 PM (#2771157) Subject: RE: Record Lady or similar site? From: Bill D If you mean classic tracks of Hank W specifically, there is a huge list here of recordings posted in 'usenet' (newsgroups)....and clicking the > arrow at the bottom shows even more. (this is not a download site, just a listing of what is there, but it may give you some info on what can be obtained) |
