On Jam's Bits and Pieces there is a new feature called
Desert Sheild.Net
Its under the Air Force material.
I don't remember seeing it this morning!!Thanks Jon!!!
December 17, 2009 at 10:26 am #71589IainJohnstonMemberEven better one under “Desert SHIELD” ! :^)
( “I” before “E” except after “C”, as I was taught at school!)
Seriously though, Jon is certainly having right good trawl through “The Vault”.
:^)December 17, 2009 at 10:12 pm #71596GlennaMemberAuthorGreat Christmas gift!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(I thought of the spelling after I posted it)
December 17, 2009 at 10:30 pm #71597GlennaMemberAuthorActually it would be fun to get a Christmas montage from Jon.
Besides whats on the demos.December 18, 2009 at 2:20 pm #71605IainJohnstonMemberThats a good suggestion Glen!
To expand on it, and picking up on Ratnob's suggestion about a “Desert Island Jingles” or all-time top-ten cuts/packages feature, I think a lot of the long-time collectors here would certainly be intriqued to see what Jon would compile as a montage of his personal favourites, whether they be as original-client cuts or particular re-sings of them (I'm assuming they'd be all JAM, but not necessarily!)
(Only catch is, Jon would probably have to reduce his “short-leet” of possibles to 10,000 rather than just 10!)
(PS – for non-UK JM'ers – “Desert Island Discs” was/is a BBC radio programme, where a guest (usually someone well-known in the public eye, but not as “celeb”-type brain-dead airhead…) is “interviewed ” by a fairly-serious presenter in a fairly light-hearted way about themselves and their life/career/etc, but ostensibly around the playing of their favourite pieces of music, which would be the sole items of music they would take with them to listen to if they were to be stranded on a Desert Island far away from “civilisation” (cue the theme music from the programme, of dreamy Hawaiian-type guitar, surf crashing on the golden beach, and the Guest sitting under the shade of a couple of palm trees….) That “steam radio” era programme has now been running for far longer than most US stations have had a single owner).
December 18, 2009 at 5:30 pm #71615GlennaMemberAuthorWe could all make a list of our favs from Jam and post them here. So Jon can read them.
Of course it would probably take up about 100 pages and I don't know if you have enough bandwidth.The other idea is send are favs lists to him.
But he probably would be a little upset if we crashed his computers.December 18, 2009 at 8:40 pm #71620IainJohnstonMember“The other idea is send are (“our”) favs (“favourite”) lists to him”
You're right – we'd overload Jon's Inbox in 5 minutes flat!
No-one should ever do that to anyone without their prior specific consent!The old “TopTen” idea was quite popular a couple of years but faded, as many audio “strands” do on JM. Might be a good time to re-initiate it though Glen – Would you want to start a fresh Thread for the Topic?
By example, this was one of mine from 2007…
