Aw, please don't go. There really isn't any way for these recordings to be heard anymore. Some of them I have on vinyl but haven't heard in years since I don't have a turntable at the moment. I certainly don't want you to have legal troubles, but, if that is not the problem, I hope you stick around. If not, thanks so much!

Thanks... I think the legal issue on this site is probably small, but there is always the chance. And that's enough for me.

I'm very sorry to hear this -- you've shared some really nice, not usually seen stuff.

maybe think about joining the groovyfab forum instead? there's a lot of good people on that forum that would appreciate much of the music that you have to share.

tuna melt went to a mail notification list -- you could set up something announce only (or an actual list if you want to solicit comments). maybe that's the way to go -- back to the future?

i second that! please hang in, if you can....you state that you'll take down any files that might still be in print, and that should be enough. Little Hits has been doing this for quite some time, and are still going strong..... this is a service [and a joy] for most of us. Thanks! Kelly

Monkey Flinging Poo said...

Yeah, I'm on Tuna's email list. I think what I most likely will do is just see if any of the other blogs want any of my offerings. To be honest, I'm only weeks from running the well dry of vinyl and hard to find stuff.

Monkey Flinging Poo said...

Oh, about Little Hits, they only post one song and usually less than 192, so I think what they are doing is probably not looked upon nearly as "bad" as all the blogs posting full albums. I'm amazed by all the blogs where people post brand new recordings easily available. I mean, hello Usenet!

dirtbox said...

well, at least post Color Me Gone. I'm sure Marti Jones wouldn't care....she probably doesn't have a copy anymore.....i'm completely with you about the new stuff, but it kind of makes a point FOR you....these songs are obviously "leaked" to drum up interest in new bands and their product, otherwise their companies would be shutting down sites right and left. It's better than payola to FM radio, right?

I hope you can keep it going, sign me up for notification. Also if you're anywhere near the Boston Area I have tons of tunes, most only played a few times! If you can't go on please teach me (us) your craft... :-D

Brian said...

oh man, this is some sad news! sure hope you reconsider. but understand your reluctance to continue.

sorry about the headaches you've had (not sure what they were) and I completely understand why you're thinking you'll throw in the towel. You've put some great stuff up here and did a great job differentiating yourself from the other blogs. You'll be missed.

Monkey Flinging Poo said...

No headaches! It's been a lot of fun. Just heading things off at the pass.

Okie said...

Just stumbled on the blog today, so I missed out on the fun. I understand your reason for locking things down but just wanted to add my name here as a contact in case you decide to try it again.

Mike Bennett said...

If you do a mailing list, please keep me posted (tried to get this up last night, not sure what happened). This site, in its brief time up, has been great.

Chris said...

Oh poo.

Herbie said...

Sorry that your generosity got you into trouble. I very much appreciated the opportunity to re-hear lots of this stuff, particularly the bands from Boston. Good luck, and thanks again.

Any chance you could post scans or link scans of the Doctor's Mob stuff - I burned my vinyl, but I can't find the covers anywhere.

Traitor Vic said...

Just had a dream about you (well... about you and Frenchie, from "The Forbidden Zone"). Just wanted to let you know "You Are Missed". If you ever wish to post some of your stuff, give me a holler.
