Wow, good discussion.
Now, as far as removal of some Don Cab goes. If any is removed, the process will go something like this:
Jim will listen to every stinking Don Cab song. If there are a FEW that he feels are unworthy, he will run them by Roger dot for a second opinion. If Roger dot agrees, we will pull those songs and post about it. I'll try to include a brief "why" they were pulled.
I don't want people to think that songs will get yanked just because one or two people complain about them. If a lot of people complain, that will drive me to give another listen and reconsider. Philip Glass "Music in 12 parts" is a good exampe -after pretty much everyone in the forums complained about a piece of music I KNEW was a stretch when I added it, it got removed. The remainder of Glass's moon presence is still there, and it will stay. Regardless of public opinion on those, I like them.
For the record, I'm somewhere between Spaz/Zvinki/Moses and Keith/Rick on Don Cab. I like all of American Don, even "Peter Criss Jazz" But I think less of them than the folks who have used words like "genius" and "Damon Che gives drum lessons here" The heavier stuff gets closer into complexity without structure, which I'm not a huge fan of. But if I relisten to something that's heavier than I like, and I find value in it, it will stay.
Rick commented in another thread that "Jim likes everything on the moon", and that's almost true. I like, or have some respect for, everything on the moon.
Continue to comment! I ultimately go by my opinion and instincts, but as I remain open minded, your opinion can have an effect on mine.
