What was the last... `Tune` that you played ? Showing 2,351-2,400 of 2,664

More. Pah.

Some. You need some.

Sad end to a great musician and songwriter.

Very true

[Patti (baconater)]

Geoff, If you don't hear from Dave tomorrow, please tell me.

His tunes are all fucked up and he needs your help.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Uh oh. What happened?

[Patti (baconater)]

iTunes is a terrible mess. Looks like he's got to uninstall it. If he does, he might as well use a different programme for playing his music. Something that plays FLAC files.
He's pissed off he'll lose a lot of his cover art, too.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

That's the problem with iTunes, Patti. That's why I stopped using it.

Suggest Foobar 2000 to play his music and use Monkeymote to automatically update the cover art. Once that's done, use MP3tag to mop up the ones that Monkeymote missed.

[Patti (baconater)]

Thank you!

I'll tell Dave now.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

You can also skin Foobar, so you can make it look any way you like.

I'm not saying there won't be some pain, but using the above method significantly reduces it. Monkey mote also converts FLAC to APE and back. It also converts to MP3 for playing on other devices.

For creating FLAC files use EAC (Exact Audio Converter) and download the FLAC DLL. I can email it to you if needs be.

Use Medieval Cue Splitter to split existing FLAC into individual tracks.

[Patti (baconater)]

He says thanks so much.

He's playing with Foobar now. I'll let you know if he gets stuck.

[David]

I also use Foobar and EAC, both excellent programmes.

Just downloaded Medieval Cue Splitter, been looking for something like that for a while.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Dark One V4 is my skin of choice at the moment. Very pretty.

Message from Dave...

I've looked at Winamp and I much prefer it to Foobar. Is there any reason Foobar is preferable?

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Yep, it doesn't crash.

Used Winamp in the past when it was owned by AOL (Distant). It got progressively worse, so I looked for alternatives. Foobar was the answer.

Once you get used to Foobar, there really is no going back, especially if you have a large music collection.

[Patti (baconater)]

Ah, okay.

Then he mumbled 'I don't like Foobar'.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Put Dark One on.

[Patti (baconater)]

Is that a skin?

He doesn't know what you mean.

[Patti (baconater)]

Then he mumbled 'the thing at the bottom I don't like'

At least I'm just a spectator, I'm not expected to be the messenger :-)

Fun Boy 3 "The Lunatics Are Taking Over The Asylum"

Still resonates today

[Patti (baconater)]

I'm copying what Geoff is saying and emailing it to Dave.

Gotta love IT.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Oi! That's copyright.

[Patti (baconater)]

Lol.

Since when does that matter to you?

Oh I remember that one! Loved it :)

Good point, well made.

Perhaps copyleft would be better.

I use Winamp as well, not as nice as Foobar, but it does take up less room on the screen, which I like.

I also use Spider Player http://spider-player.en.softonic.com/ the Pro version is now free.

I don't tend to use skins. I like them to take up as little space on the screen as possible, tuck them away in a corner out of my way, but still accessible when I forget what a song is called.

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

I'm not really following this either. Sometimes I listen to a CD.

You youngsters have no sense of adventure.

[Patti (baconater)]

I've no idea how Dave got on. I'm afraid to ask.

He may tell me if I ask, then I'll have to pretend to be interested.

Think yourself lucky. I once demonstrated to my wife the difference between MP3s and FLAC over several songs.

For some reason she still hasn't thanked me.

[Patti (baconater)]

Dave has done the same to me. More than once.

It's true. I just want stuff when I need it. Not when it happens to work :-(

[Patti (baconater)]

Goosebumps, David.

[David]

I go on the principle of download it now, find a use for it later.

This one is for all of us indie authors:

Listening to Culpepers Orchard this morning. They only ever made two albums. Both are gems and therefore quite collectable.

Edited to correct the name of the band.

ha, like the sentiment more than the band :-)

[Marc]

Was playing my regular 1980s diet of down & dirty yesterday:

Tools You Can Trust "Again, Again, Again" (industrial)
World Domination Enterprises "Let's Play Domination" (industrial/dub)
Boss Hog "Cold Hands" & "Drinkin' Lechin' & lyin'" (swamp blues)

Oh, I dunno. Dr Hook were one of the best gigs I went to back in the day.

[Marc]

just not my thang :-)

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Dr Hook were much misunderstood as a band. Their first single, Silvia's mother was thought to be a comedy song as it was written by Shel Silverstein, a very popular comedy song writer, and whilst they were humourous in their style and delivery, they were capable musicians.

An antidote for Joy Division, I would suggest.

[Marc]

I'll stick with Joy Division
