Re: babel-digest V11 #230



I am always too late   to get in on the CBGB offer . will someone  offer to
take care of this Canadian  in Ontario .Please send me  your offer  off list
. Ihave a CD burner that I do not know how to use yet ...then I can  extend
this offer to others as well

I did receive the Bowery Ballroom  Patti New Year 2005 bash from Mike in
Kansas ...answer coming  via  snail mail Mike !!...he used a RIDATA 52 x
80mm/70MB ...that works in my CD player for those two discs . I have had
others  that  just did not  connect on my player ...a middle of the road
radio/cd player . that works fine  for purchased CDs but I believe I need to
get a better one .

He sent me three more Patti discs  on Hypermedia  multispeed 80min/700Mb
and  they do not  playback...two discs for Obscurities and one for
Roots . I could swap these for somebody  for  the  3 discs from CBGB. I AM
hoping Mike will do these for me again with the Ridata discs...grin...hope
he is reading this !

He also sent me a couple of Patti DVDs ...one thru the  years of recorded TV
appearances on Late Night shows like  Letterman ...that is wonderful as  you
see these musicians  mature ....from their first show  at CBGB in
1975!....and one at Towers Records in NYC  filmed over the shoulders of
others at a  live performance   that is  quite  amazing as a close-up view
of Patti in action  ...she really is so comfortable   in her  own skin. She
had a  polaroid camera and was taking  pics of her audience  and was  funny
with the comments  about the man in the front row ruining one image [much
laughter ] and then another  kidding  someone about wanting to get INTO the
picture after she had taken it .The honestly authentic  glow  she puts out
is really  incandescent. I hope I will be able to see her perform live some
day before she ...or I ...depart this earth . Her DOI and  her Gandhi are
faves of mine ,among others  , but she  and her music are still new to me .
I really  do enjoy her distinctive  voice...no others quite like it .

Hoping  to hear from somebody ...thanx to Mike I  do have  a swap for
somebody who may want Roots and Obscurities ...3 discs for  3

Yvonne on  a wet rainy day  and it is dark at 5pm already . I think winter
arrived ...we have had snow  flurries already  during the past week .
