Dang, what a scam! Remove the play protections but then the folks find out you gotta buy the recordings he removed the protections from.

Such a deal!

Art, I hope this makes you tons of money! It makes those Wall St. bastards look like pikers. 8-)

Copy protection removed?

What, did you go around and throw away all the sleeves?

You missed my copy, I'm sure it was just an oversight. I await your visit to RR 1 McDonalds Corners ON to remedy the situation.

The K.Mule stuff was sold to Fantasy years ago--along with all Kicking M.s other issues as well. Then Fantasy sold 'em all to someone else---I've no idea who or what! As far as I'm concerned, do what you will with any copies you might have of those LPs.

My 3 recordings for Sandy Paton's FOLK LEGACY RECORDS are all CDs at www.folklegacy.com----- The one CDI did for Andrew Calhoun's Waterbug Records is also a CD --- at www.waterbug.com

I don't think any of my recorded work was ever available for download anywhere at any time. The tracks that BKlick put up on the web (THANKS Bruce) are there for the taking by anyone who wants them.

Any recordings I made were for sale out o' my trunk mainly---back when I had a trunk to sell 'em out of at road gigs. Other than that, mostly any of my recordings were mainly calling cards that I gave to friends and/or relatives and/or trying to get gigs to pay the rent etc. etc. etc.

My heartfelt thanks to all who enjoyed some of what I did over the years. I've appreciated your grand support throughout!!!

Does that mean the Mule can't be Kicking you any more?!

Any announcement from Art has to be big.

Sounds to me like you've finally become "traditional," Art! That is good news.

Art,

I've got an LP of yours called Outright Baldfaced Lies. It's too bad your announcement only comes now. Ten years ago I could have copied onto cassette to listen to in the car. Now I've only got a CD player in the car.
