Thanks man, ill check out yamipod.

Have you ever tried rockbox? the idea behind it is not to be installed on
your pc and allow different communication with your ipod, rather, you
install it on the ipod iteslf! then, it allows you to browse through your
files ON the ipod. when you connect your ipod to the computer, you just get
a plain drive, where you can copy files to and from (no need to any
software!). Rockbox also has its own database where it lets you choose files
by their tags too. basically, its not iPod anymore, just the ipod machine!

 personally, i use rockbox (http://www.rockbox.org/) on my ipod

 Bri:
 Agreed there, on iTunes. I hate any of that sh*t that is geared to
 connecting you to a web page so you can be separated from your money.
 I use yamipod (http://www.yamipod.com) with my iPod. It has a simple
 user interface, doesn't insinuate itself into your registry, and it
 even allows you to copy songs from iPod to computer (which I think
 iTunes doesn't allow). Works on all OS platforms. The main features
 are listed on their web page.

  



[Zappa-List] Re: Retro Reviews

2008-12-05 Thread musicstreetjournalnew
You are probably right there. The only thing is, since the albums were
released way back when they qualify as retro --- retro futurist perhaps?

 We've got some cool Zappa retro CD reviews at Music Street Journal.
 
 They are -
 
 Frank Zappa - Apostrophe'
 Frank Zappa - Over-Nite Sensation
 Frank Zappa - Sheik Yerbouti

 Retro? RETRO?  Frank was ahead of his time at that time.  If
 anything he's timely at the present time.  Maybe he's still ahead of
 *OUR* time presently. :)

[Zappa-List] Stockholm 88 sbd

2008-12-05 Thread Glen Young
For those who haven't checked the Zappateers tracker for a while, a sbd of 
Stockholm 88 surfaced yesterday after some 20 odd years.
It's the only sbd to appear from the 88 tour unless you count the official 
releases and Barcelona dvd.
