She's not a newcomer, been around a long time as a member of Wolleneider's band (sp), but I lover her voice, the music on the record is pretty cool and I bet she's great live. While the record is decidedly uneven, it should go a long way to making a dent in the folk music universe.

I got tired of not hearing the hidden track, since it is a bit difficult to cue up. Since I have a CD burner on my PC, I decided to make my own. If you try to do this yourself, you need to know a little bit about how CDs are arranged, and you need something more powerful than the run-of-the-mill easy-to-use CD duplicator software. For example, the popular Adaptec Easy CD Creator type of software won't help you. I used a very nice tool called CDRWIN, from Goldenhawk (see http://www.goldenhawk.com). One way to look at CDs is by tracks. But looking at F&B by tracks doesn't work, because Track 1 is Scorpion and you just never see the hidden song. You have to look at the CD by sector (also known as LBA, or Logical Block Address). Most normal music CDs begin with Track 1 indexed about 2 seconds into the CD, or sector 000000. But Flesh & Bone's Track 1 index is way into the CD at 3 minutes and 43 seconds, or sector 016575. I used CDRWIN to extract all of the data off the F&B CD by specifying a sector extraction beginning at sector 000000. This gave me a *big* WAV file of the entire CD -- including the hidden track. Then I created a new index file which specified Track 1 to be at sector 000000, Track 2 to be at sector 016575, and so on. Then I burned a new CD. The result is a custom Flesh & Bone CD with 13 tracks, instead of 12 -- and it starts playing with Track 1, "I've Just Seen a Face". I even went so far as to scan the CD jewel case back, and edit it to show the new track and new numbering.

So are crowded schedules, mine that is... I've tried to find a way to be in Dublin on Dec.9 for this year's best house concert ever by the incredible man from Milwaukee, Peter Mulvey, in London Dec. 10 for what I'm sure will be the best Lucy show of the year :-) and back in Germany by 9 a.m. the follwing morning for something I can't cancel, but the airline-gods are not being nice to me and there is no way that sort of a travel arrangement could work and thus it looks like I won't be able to make it to Lucy's London gig. :-( Dave, I want a full report of course!

I'll be sure to oblige, sister! :-) Given that Kay and I are joining Katrin in Dublin for the Peter Mulvey house concert on the Saturday before Lucy in London, and are rather hectically flying back the afternoon of the Jazz Cafe gig, it looks like we won't be around for any pre-concert meal or gathering, but we will see you all at the venue. If anyone wants to organize something prior to the gig, then feel free! As Kay won't be attending, there's no need to go for pizza! ;-) Dave. - ---------- "When responding to a posting, please try to avoid the extensive quoting of previous posts.
