CD... or double (?) CD

Post by oldguy » Nov 18th 1999, 8:26 pm

Wow... you guys are impressive. I'm off for a week --- and I sure got a response!

Ok let me say a few things:

1) I'm definitely all for doing this. And I appreciate all the input. I want to do this
in a way everyone will be satisfied. So I won't try to shove a certain set of songs
down anyone's throat. Keep up the suggestions, and I think we will come to a
consensus! I do have one vote on one topic: I love Juliana Hatfield's "Make it Home",
and I also think the theme should be the first song (Angelika --- you are right on!).
Other than that, I'll go along with whatever you as a group suggest!

2) Expect that once we decide on a set of songs, and once I get copies of everything,
it might still take a little time to put it all together. I'd really like to do this right ----
which means taking the time to do it right (whether that's 1 2, or 3 CDs!). I am sort
of an amateur musician in my spare time, and I have done some work in audio production,
so I would like to make this as professional as possible. But I think there's a good
chance we could put this all together by Christmas.

I will soon post a list that summarizes everything I've got up to this point.

Follow-up

Post by oldguy » Nov 18th 1999, 8:30 pm

One thing that we might have to realize is that certain music might
only be available off the show. For example, I think "Red" from
"Self-Esteem" was never released on CD. But I could record
what's on video --- just the excerpt direct form the show --- and
include that on this CD (or CDs). I think that would be cool to
include some excerpts like that. Another thought is to include
other excerpts recorded direct from video ---- like cool quotes and
short segments. I would definitely dig that mixed in with the music.

What do you think?

I think it'd be cool to add qoutes and things from the show. And on songs like "Red" and Rayanne's "Seasame St", we'll definitely have to record straight off the video. We don't really have an option, if we chose to make it complete, because video is the only source. There's 31 songs total, and if we did double cd we could split it 16-15. That would most likely leave room for small audio bits like qoutes.

Should we make a mailing list to discuss this? :)

Well, eventually, I will want to get everyone's postal address who wants a CD.
Also, since these audio recordable CDs cost a little bit, I'll probably ask for at
least something in the range of $5 - $8 from everyone. The only other thing I
would ask is a little patience, because I may want to take a little time
perfecting this! I have a number of serious audio editing tools that I can use
to make this a very "pro-sounding" compilation, but it will take some time
to do it right (at least through Christmas). The benefit will be a really cool
compilation ---- including cool one-liners and memorable parts from the show
dubbed in.

The other thing that will help make this really good is to get the highest
quality versions of each of the recordings. That means that if one person
has it on MP3, and another has it on CD, the CD will be best. I'm just
saying that it will be worth taking the time to compile the really best set
of recordings we can ----- then this set willl really be memorable!

is that really the complete list? pardon my ignorance if it is...it just didn't seem like there were enough songs for that to be all of them (the show used them all the time)- but if it is then, hey, that makes our job a little easier! =)

Clips from the show would ROCK! Would they be dubbed over pieces of the songs, or separate tracks...I would vote for separate, but that's just me.

and soma, I do think it would be a good idea to do some sort of mailing list type thing once we start voting on songs etc, just because it would be more direct by email....once again, just my opinion =)

I've noted two songs not on this list that folks have mentioned:

Cruel Swing - Jawbox**
Blue Moon - Elvis

Are these songs really on episodes?
Sorry --- I just want to make sure.

Re: dubbing of cool lines from the show

Post by oldguy » Nov 19th 1999, 12:57 am

I definitely would want these separate from the songs...
except for possibly using them as lead-ins to songs.

Yeah, I think quotes would work best seperate from the songs. We could do it kinda like the Pulp Fiction soundtrack, where some quotes stand alone and others serve as intros to specific songs...

I can contribute "Jonny Angel" by Shelly Fabres, and any songs from the soundtrack that are needed. Just tell me how to get them where they need to go.

On a side note, am i the only one who's bummed about the change of the Sesame Street theme song?

Yeah. They changed the beat, mainly. It's now like this hip-hop type thing. sigh...

I totally agree with you about the change of the SS theme song-- Ioved the old version soooo much better. but then, that may be partially because it's what I grew up with. Still, it was much cooler. The mp3 I have of the theme is the old one.
