That was the drive I had when I first got the Jar of Flies CD+. I called Creative Labs, and asked them how to make it work, and they flat out told me it will not work. Maybe what we need is a spot on Seth's page titled "CD-ROM Drives that Let You Enjoy AITS". Everybody who has had success could post what CD-ROM drive (manufacturer and model number) they are using. Oh yeah, don't try the Creative Labs 6x drive either. It also flat out will not work. Finally, don't be fooled by the Corel drivers that come with the CD+. Those drivers are for SCSI CD-ROM drives only. They will not help at all if you're using a drive with an IDE interface or that funky Panasonic interface (meaning most drives). :-( Greg -- Life's a bitch, and then you buy a CD+ On Wed, 3 Apr 1996, Joco Agostinho wrote: > I got some big problem here, well here it goes: > Does anybody on the list have the CD+ working on a double speed > Creative Labs/Panasonic CD-rom? ------------------------------ From: Gonzo Subject: Re:new thread(1 song for lolla) It would have to be 4th. of July.that song has so much distortion that itwill kicks my Butt all over the the pit.ok ,thats all.

I won't bother with explaining the technique, but it produces a >sustaining, almost piano or keyboard-like tone on a guitar. I'd be interested to hear other guitarists' opinions on this one. The first song Carolyn referred to, Uncovered from Louder than Love, definitely uses muted/muffled strings (fret hand lightly touching strings while strumming) - I know 'cos official guitar tab says so. The other track referred to, Bombtrack from Rage Against The Machine, I believe uses palm muting. Now, is the resulting "scratchy-screechy" sound of muted/muffled strings a result of harmonics? I mean, muted strings are essentially a form of harmonics, aren't they? Both harmonics and muted strings you're lightly touching the strings without pressing them all the way down to the fretboard... or am I missing something? My next problem is that I'm having a bugger of a time producing harmonics, either artificial or natural. Has anyone out there got some tips for me? The particular song I'm working on at the moment is Kindergarten from Faith No More, and I can't get the natural harmonics found in the guitar part to sound much like what they should, regardless of the amount of gain or distortion I apply. Also, a friend of mine told me that harmonics are limited to certain frets...is this true? All opinions and tips welcome...

And A&M being typically weedy wesels that any corporate music business that it is has decided to milk the last penny out of Soundgarden that they still can have decided to release a double CD (because double CDs are the rage today eg. pumpkins, 2-pac etc). On one CD of course will have all the singles they released; Flower, Hands all over, Loud Love, Big Dumb Sex (b/c GNR covered it), Rusty Cage, Outshined, JCP, My Wave, BHS, day i tried to live, fell on black days, spoonman, and Superunknown. Hope I didn't miss any. The second CD will be those special favorites that will cover the lenght of their career that will be picked out by you and your special interests and whims just because you liked them the best. 15 songs you get that should completely cover their career but totally subjective. My fifteen 1. Nothing to say - the introvert's theme song 2. Hand of God - early classic 3. Mood for trouble 4. Nazi Driver - I don't care if it tastes like poison 5. Head Injury 6. Mood for trouble 7. Ugly truth - overlooked it seems 8. I awake - it just grows on you 9. Full on Kev's Mom - dont ask me why, its just weird 10. Slaves and Bulldozers (live) the best song to hear live, Sg can really jam 11. Somewhere - the last song on one of the greatest sides ever (my first copy of BMF was on tape 12. Searching with my good eye closed - the song just grooves, great song to listen to when chemically altered 13. Limo Wreck - this song just grows on you, my personal fave 14. Mailman 15. Head down i've got the name for this 2cd set! *chris*tory. it'll have a big studly picture of our 6'1.5" beefcake as a statue on the cover too. seriously, though, i would like to hear 'fresh tendrils' on this compilation. i mean matt takes tremendous pride in his song, and i think the song kicks tha ass. like suicide and new damage have got to be there, too. i personally think it might have to be a three cd set, to avoid the arguments. i mean, we can't do what zeppelin remasters did and forget 'what is and what shall never be'. i'll never forgive them for that. assholes. one things for sure, the *live* version of beyond the wheel is going on. (what am i talking about? i still haven't heard it!) i waiting with baited breath, though. and about smokestack lightning--i regret to say that it will never grow on me. it just sounds silly, i mean, sg just had no pedigree in the blues. ------------------------------ From: OponFam@aol.com Subject: Face Pollution Hey Mayor McCheese. I really liked your interpretation of Face Pollution. Kathie ------------------------------ From: OponFam@aol.com Subject: Early Soundgarden I have to disagree with Peter Cabral in his assessment of early Soundgarden. Every Soundgarden recording is very different - every album has had a different sound and feel. I love Toybox and Flower and Beyond the Wheel and, well you get the picture. As far as being "unpolished", I hope Soundgarden's music never becomes polished. I love their rawness and personally prefer alot of their older stuff to the newer (although I do love BMF). I got a funny feeling in my stomach reading this post, perhaps because the attitude seemed a bit elitist. I wonder if this guy has ever actually seen Soundgarden live and experienced the raw energy of all their music. Maybe I'm just biased because I'm such a big fan, or maybe I just like the kind of music that Mr. Cabral thinks is crap. Maybe none of this really matters (its late). I guess this means that if he had first heard Soundgarden at the same time I first did, 6+ years ago, he wouldn't have liked them? To each his own I guess.

PE>i'll tell you, rhythmic creativity is a dying PE>art these days, and sg is one of the only bands keeping it alive. Yep. Even on Come Together, they did a lot to the song to change it to their style, without changing it much at all. I think that's another thing they've got going for them. The same with Girl U Want. I heard the SG version first, and then later I heard it at the beginning of Tank Girl, and I thought, "WOW! It's Girl U Want, and it sounds almost just like the SG one!" But Soundgarden added some heavier guitars (not really heavy, just kinda) and then Chris sang it (which made it even better :) and BANG! Soundgarden song. It's just so cool how they can change a song to fit them, without changing it a lot. Maybe it means that they're more versitile. I also think G'N'R does pretty good with remakes, too. I know I liked their Big Dumb Sex (not as good as the original, though).

I was wondering how long it would take other people to notice this. I'd be willing to bet a large quantity of money that the official page is wrong in this case. seth ------------------------------ From: Chris Mackenzie Subject: IRC There's discussion on IRC tonight so head on over to #somms on undernet. ------------------------------ From: Eric Gardner Subject: #somms is open for the bored ------------------------------ From: rc@gcc.cc.md.us Subject: stating the obvious JO>so who are you to say you own it? I never said I own it, and I'm always glad when people discover a new band that I like.... JO>everyone heard nirvana for the JO>first time somewhere, so does that mean whoever played it to you is JO>cooler? ...BUT, when they made fun of me years ago for liking the same music that they just "discovered", THEN it gets annoying. Nobody played Soundgarden for me. The reason I heard them is because I read a review of Superunknown, and something about the review grabbed me and said, "That'll be GREAT!" so I bought it, and it was. But I do hear some new music from other people, but they also hear new music from me. My method of finding something new is looking in the CD bin for something that looks cool and grabs my attention (usually). But that's not the point. The point is, people who jump on the bandwagon suck, because they are usually jumping on the same bandwagon that they claimed to hate a few years ago. Nothingman -"Oh, yeah, Trent Reznor is just the coolest." -Didn't you hate him? -"Oh...well, that was last year." ------------------------------ From: "Vasant Ramamurthy" Subject: Re: fun facts >Eddie Vedder grew up in Evanston >Billy Corgan attended Evanston Township High School >Liz Phair's parents work at Northwestern Hospital (in Evanston) >Matt Cameron has never lived in Evanston.

In the senior class picture, I had my finger in my nose. :) SH>I also heard they SH>snapped a pic of someone's butt. Whose? C'mon people... fess up. Help SH>me. I didn't see a butt, but the music in the picture gallery rules. I said it before, but I'll say it again. I think we might hear some of this on their new album.
