Re: Live tapes, new studio work, and rare "Glass" pre-Jazz Butcher recordings

This whining is amazingly dull. Ever stop to think that perhaps Pat & Co. GAVE his permission to have these tunes made available? This whole thing is an experiment, can't you see? If making a small number of recordings available over the web actually works, then perhaps it'll be feasable for Pat to make more of his catalog available on the web and then we can all have the recordings we've been itching to have for ages, AND Pat will get paid for it.

There are all sorts of issues to contend with, mostly technological and legal. They'll have to be sorted out over time. We've discussed all of this before. So, kindly wait in line like the rest of us and we'll see if it works. Oh, wait. You're a wizard. I forgot. Silly me.
