Subject: I NEED NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Art Thieme Date: 14 Mar 98 - 01:13 PM Howdy good people, I'm in need of some GOOD NAMES FOR THE TITLE OF A CD I'm striving to put out. It'll be made up of concert tracks spanning the last 3 decades! Any ideas you might come up with would sure be appreciated. Thanks, Art Folks have told me there's no way I can redeem my "good name" at this late date, but I might as well try. |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Joe Offer Date: 14 Mar 98 - 01:29 PM Hi, Art - I suppose "Art's Art" and "Thieme's Themes" have already worn out their welcome at the Thieme household, huh? Well, you could do worse. Somebody introduced me as "Joe Awful," this week. Last week, I got a marriage proposal from a real estate lady - she thought she could make good use of my surname in her business. So, anyhow, how about something nice like "Reminiscences"? Let us know as soon as the CD comes out - I wanna be the first kid on my block to have one. -Joe Offer- |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: rich r Date: 14 Mar 98 - 04:06 PM Art, Maybe listing some of the song titles would trigger a connecting title. rich r |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Alice Date: 14 Mar 98 - 04:29 PM Yes, Art, we need more info regarding the music on the CD. This sounds like fun. alice in montana |

|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Alice Date: 14 Mar 98 - 05:59 PM Art, I think you should call it "Why White Men Can't See Clearly". That title would really jump out and get noticed! Another appropriate one on your list as a title for the CD is the last one, "A Handful O Songs". I haven't had time to really think about this. I'll be back later, though. this IS fun for me. alice |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Helen Date: 14 Mar 98 - 06:20 PM Art, The only name for a CD that I've been thinking about (for quite a while) probably doesn't relate to your CD much, but I think it would be fun, is: Hip Hoperation, i.e. a cross between the modern/popular dance music Hip Hop, and Hip Operation, i.e. a life experience of the older generation. On another note, I have had a thread going this week, without a lot of luck so far, about a tune called The Water Kelpie, which goes *really* well with the tune The Great Silkie of Sule Skerry. I can't find the lyrics, but if you are interested in the tune I can type it into a midi format and either send you a midi file or learn how to do Alan of Australia's MidiTxt programme. They really sound good together and the stories are similar about animals transforming into human form, and the sad tale of of each one's human lover. Helen |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Gene Date: 14 Mar 98 - 10:21 PM Add a Spade Cooley song and title the CD: THIEME! THIEME! ON YOU!

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Will Date: 14 Mar 98 - 11:05 PM Looks more like "Two hands full of songs" |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Art Thieme Date: 14 Mar 98 - 11:50 PM Finally got back here to see what's happening. Thanks so much for the input. Is appreciated. I've just been hanging out at a place where PEOPLE TURN INTO ANIMALS ALL THE TIME !! I was at the corner bar ! Later--------Art A fellow at the bar just recently crossed a sheep with a porcupine. I don't know what he got from that, but it does knit it's own sweaters. |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Alex Date: 15 Mar 98 - 12:22 AM Art, see, I told you the Mudcat folks would get into this! In an Email, you mentioned that some of the older analog tapes had to be baked to copy them to DAT. So, depending on the percentage of material processed this way, (or even if you care about being statistically accurate), how about "Art Thieme - Half Baked" through "Art Thieme - Completely Baked" or "Art Thieme - Baked to a Turn". |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Alice Date: 15 Mar 98 - 08:52 AM I love nobbler's suggestion above. Wish I'd thought of that one.

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Sheye Date: 15 Mar 98 - 10:14 AM Joe, I just gotta bite: did she make you an Offer you just couldn't refuse?? |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Helen Date: 15 Mar 98 - 06:12 PM Joe, Did she make you an Offer you couldn't *understand*? Helen |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Date: 15 Mar 98 - 07:11 PM "she offered her honor,he honored her offer- then all night long, it was "offer and (h)onor" |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Joe Offer Date: 15 Mar 98 - 07:22 PM Hmmm. This last one doesn't sound like anything in my experience. In my dreams, perhaps..... -Joe Offer- |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Sheye Date: 15 Mar 98 - 09:43 PM shoulda' signed your squiggley on that last one; the pen is definitely worth claiming!!! So, Joe, now that you've got the start to a very interesting song, when will we see/hear the chorus?? Will there be a "moral of the story" ending? |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Nathan Sarvis Date: 15 Mar 98 - 10:01 PM How about "Good Old Stuff" |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Art Thieme Date: 15 Mar 98 - 10:38 PM Well, Joe, no idea what I'm calling mine, but if you make one you should call it OFFERTUNITY KNOCKS! Art |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Sheye Date: 15 Mar 98 - 10:44 PM If melancholic titles suit your pieces, Art, how 'bout something like "The Shadows of Time"? |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Paul Stamler Date: 16 Mar 98 - 02:31 AM "Lock, Stock and Barrel"? Paul |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: dwditty Date: 16 Mar 98 - 05:53 AM Performance Art Of Thieme I Sing Artfelt Thiemes Thiemes Like Old Times How Great Thou Art ... |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Whippoorwill Date: 16 Mar 98 - 11:55 AM Art, your bit about the sheep and the porcupine reminds me of the story about the guy who wanted to breed abadiles. He crossed an abalone with a crocodile. He never did get his abadile - all he got was a crocabaloney. :^) |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Bert Date: 16 Mar 98 - 12:22 PM How about simply "Good Thiemes" |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Alice Date: 16 Mar 98 - 03:32 PM ... or, ala Martha Stewart, "It's a Good Thieme"
or, 'It's About Thieme" (Art, you had better clarify how you pronounce your last name.) alice |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Art Thieme Date: 16 Mar 98 - 05:35 PM The last name, Thieme, is pronouncer "theme". We were thinking of naming our son "English"! And I once formed a group with Elvis, Patti Page, Rosemary Cloony and me. We called ourselves PRESSLEY, PAGE, ROSEMARY AND THIEME. (Did I post that one before? Feels like I did--Oh, well.) And then there was the rabbit that made love to a skunk! Didn't get all he wanted, but got all he could stand! |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Jerry Friedman Date: 16 Mar 98 - 09:31 PM The "offered her honor" joke goes back to Groucho (at least), so that anonymous person couldn't really take credit for it. "Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thieme" seems like a possibility. Or "Art for Art's Sake" (or something like "Music for Art's Sake", etc.) |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Alice Date: 17 Mar 98 - 02:56 AM "Thieme Songs" alice in montana |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Bruce O. Date: 17 Mar 98 - 02:29 PM 'Last Gasp'? Not you Art, the CD. One of my highschool friends, J.T.R., invented the CD in 1965, and now has his own company and lab working on a device to make it obsolete. |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Bill D Date: 17 Mar 98 - 05:13 PM Obselete!!! Whadda they expect us to buy NEXT? Maybe we should think up something to outwit 'em...like maybe SINGING with each other and uh....passing the music on orally..*wink*... |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Bruce O. Date: 17 Mar 98 - 05:30 PM Bill D, How you going to give that process a name that means something? felk, fulk, foolk? |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Jon W. Date: 17 Mar 98 - 05:36 PM Whatever your friend's working on, Bruce, I sure hope it has no moving parts. I'm so tired of turntables, tape decks, VCR's and CD players wearing out (and the newer they are the faster they wear out) I could tear out my hair. You oughtta be able to get a few hundred megabytes of sequentially accessed pre-programmed memory into a solid-state device the size of a credit card, I would think. That's all it would take. Now for the name of the CD: how about "Eclectic Art"? |

I'm leaning toward THE OLDER I GET, THE BETTER I WAS!! but we'll see... Art |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Dan Mulligan Date: 20 Mar 98 - 06:49 PM I didn't read them all.... did anyone suggest "Thieme Park?" |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Date: 20 Mar 98 - 09:56 PM Bruce O. Is your inventor friend Dutch? And does he work for Philips? I'd always thought that the Philips company invented the compact disc. Been wrong before though :) |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Whistler's Mutha Date: 21 Mar 98 - 02:39 AM Wow, Bruce knows the inventor of the CD! (let's see you b.s. your way out of this one Bruce.) |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Helen Date: 21 Mar 98 - 03:28 AM Whistler's Mutha For someone with the cleverest nickname I've seen for years, you sure do have a short fuse. Do us all a favour and stop flaming people on this forum, or find somewhere else to hang out and leave us to get on with it without your nasty comments, please. Helen If you want to flame me you can find my email address on the message page. Keep it off the thread discussions. |
|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Whistler's Mutha Date: 21 Mar 98 - 10:46 AM I wasn't flaming! I was laghing. You didn't get that? I truly DO wish to see how Bruce talks his way out of that. You seem to have flamed ME here. Doesn't ANYONE else here think that would be entertaining? Geeze Helen lighten up. If you are going to be so quick to flame people maybe you should go someplace else. |

|
Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Dan Mulligan Date: 22 Mar 98 - 01:06 PM Well, what did you choose? Are you going to leave us hanging here ,Art?. (by the way, I learned the hard way that you really don't get to control when these things begin and end, or what the content is.)Good Luck with the project. :-) Dan |

Subject: RE: NAMES FOR A NEW CD !!! From: Alan of Australia Date: 23 Mar 98 - 03:27 AM Sorry, I was at a folk festival at the weekend and missed the deadline. Still, what about Artbeat? Cheers, |
