look, this idea for saving ROAD records is all well and good... but it won't work....
i have been thinking that a far better solution is to just say goodbye to an old friend by producing a not-for-profit album called "one for the road" or some other cliché...
when i say not-for-profit, that means any direct help producing this (aside from material costs) would be offered free.... someone to master it, bands to provide new material etc... work out the sums, promote and sell and give any profits to d&j as a goodbye and thanks for the memories present...
this has to be bigger than thumped though... we'd be searching out new songs by anyone who could provide as long as we keep it in the spirit of things with some artistic integrity... it would be nice to get hands on some of the old road relish ones as well, perhaps to finish the thing with jason molina's "fade street" (the only old song)...
if anyone thinks this idea is worth pursuing and has something to input (sound / art / music) etc..., drop me a line...
cheers
