BK, if you include all of the albums with your name on it, including the reissues -- even if you did no strenuous work on them, such as you did with "Promises" or "Sugar -- you won't have anyone say, "Why did you leave off 'Henry, Sweet Henry' or 'Prettybelle' when your name's on my copy?"

JohnG, I'm still catching up - what day's discussion is this comment to BK an answer for?
His notes today.

Yikes! I'd read yesterday's notes rather than today's. Guess being sporadically Errant and Truant wreaks havoc on the mind.

At least you have a mind on which havoc can be wrought. I'm having a very Monday Monday, with two doctor's visits and too much work. So, of course, I'm here.

Speaking of Frances, there is a carbon page from her Max Factor contract on eBay for a rather hefty $850. I believe I have the original which I got years ago for maybe $100.

That's inflation for you.

Well, one of the points of the book is that I take the producer credit very seriously - but I'll think on it, but it would add, oh, say about another 200 plus titles to the list.

My final words on this. I understand your perspective, but I just want to share two views, one from my perspective as a completist on way too many things and the other as a grad student. I've got a class on "Company" this semester, and I may turn to your book for some mention on the various Sondheim recordings you've done through the years. It could be "Evening Primrose" on disc or it could be "Unsung Sondheim." A complete list might then take me to "Sondheim at the Movies" or something else I may never have heard of.

You (BK) could qualify your producer credits...you could have the main list be the recordings where you were the most involved, where you came up with the idea and was in control of everything. Then maybe have another list of recordings that were re-releases that you fixed up, and another list where you just released recordings that were essentially produced by other people...or however you want to differenciate the ways you've produced/released recordings. It certainly would be most helpful.

Today's trip to Kroger was quite nerve-wracking because they're remodeling the store - started last night, according to my cashier. Some shelves are empty and products are not where they used to be. They do have lots of staff wandering the aisles wearing sashes that say INFORMATION and they directed me a couple of times.

The biggest frustration for me was the packer who dropped one of my reusable bags after he'd put a jar of spaghetti sauce in it. Broke the jar and ruined the bag - one of my favorites from a library conference that said, "Speak Softly and Carry a Big Bag - of Books." They offered to give me a Kroger bag as a replacement, but I declined. One of the other baggers went and got another jar of sauce for me, but when I got home I discovered that I'd only come away with one of the 2 jars I'd paid for.

Think I'll shop elsewhere until the makeover is finished...

They just moved everything in our Kroger store, Ginny. Very upsetting to not be able to find anything.

So, I got a phone call from The Game Warden. Not the news I wanted to hear. But not awful news.

John G. · « **Reply #74 on:** January 30, 2012, 02:41:30 PM »

Ginny, sorry to hear about your trip. These stores pick the weirdest times for remodeling. And the store is almost always the worse for it. They'll drop some products only to make more room for an increasing amount of salsas or potato chips, etc.
