Part V of this Grand Experiment in a world folkie voices CD for the Mudcat can be found over here.

Offers of voluntary help are popping up and people are sending in their CDs, tapes, and MP3 files (we also accept .wav and .aif readily). My office is looking like some wild bachelor professor's digs!!

Here's the schedule for producing the planet's first ALL MUDCAT SAMPLER CD:

Collection of Candidates  ---- up to end of May

Review and Prelim Selection --- May-June
Final Selection-------------------------- ------June
Initial Build- ------------------------------July
Quality Enhancement/

Normalization -------------------- -----July - August
Final Build---------------------------- ---------- August
Organize Logistics for Distrib: June--- ----- August
Final QA---------------------------- ---------------- - -- August
Release  --------------------- ---------- ---- ----------- Early September.

< P> Still a lot of logistics and other decisions to be made, but right now we are in the SEND 'EM IN NOW phase for a but longer. So don't be shy, don't postpone, don't beat yourself about the ears -- just SING IT, WRAP IT, and ship it on out!!

Peg's CD just arrived -- I am unwrapping it as I speak (don't ask!) and Mudlark's tape is in the mail, and Sandy Paton has sent a CD en route, and so has Margaret MacArthur. So we're really running like molten gold here. Thanks to all of you for all you've done so far!!

More as it happens!!

Weekend's here!!

GREAT opportunity to finally make that track for the Mudcat CD!! Well? Don't just sit there staring at the screen!! Break out that MiniDisc recorder, dang it!

Best regards,

A
