Dropping Like Flies

there is a dropbox link so people can download the out of print game theory records on  http://www.loudfamily.com/  but right now as expected it's been disabled due to popularity.  I've got most of the loud family records and "lolita nation" on CD, so that's what I'll be listening to today.  The last Loud Family  "what if it works" is one of my all time favorite albums...

Not that it should come as a shock, but the best mainstream blog article on Scott Miller is in the Guardian.  Even Mitch Easter posts in the comments.  The rest I've seen are just re-writes of the website info.

In the spirit of giving, I've uploaded both of my Game Theory CDs to Dropbox in ALAC:

Real Nighttime

The Big Shot Chronicles

Dropbox's bandwidth limit is 20GB per day. The two folders are 647MB so there won't be many of you who can download them. I'll send the links to loudfamily.com in a day or so.

I was listening to Lolita Nation today and remembered why I like that album so much, Scott and co had a knack for being arty with going overboard.  If I get a chance I'll rip it into FLAC over the weekend.  People are asking close to $100 for that CD.  And yes we should start another thread for Scott Miller discussion.. d

They really should put them up on Bandcamp...

This is sad as she was so young. I never got to see them play.

He contributed to almost all of the great mid-'70s Parliament-Funkadelic classic concept sets, including "One Nation Under a Groove," "Mothership Connection," and "The Clones of Dr. Funkenstein."

I read this and thought 'Bootsy Collins played bass on those albums".    Turns out they had 2 bassists. Great band.

Bummer way to start the weekend, though completely unsurprising. A minor miracle he lived this long.
