 Thread: Daniel Amos - Darn Floor Big Bite 20th Anniversary |
|
|
Hey guys -
Sorry I've been absent -- been super busy lately.
As far as quality control: Terry & Tom are 150% involved -- it was important that we do this with their blessing/involvement. We definitely want to keep up the high standards of the DA reissues that have been arriving over the last few months.
So my plan for this from the beginning was to push the name of Daniel Amos far outside the familiar circles. To that end, I'll definitely be doing a hard pitch to blogs and magazines for coverage. It always frustrated me that DA hasn't gotten the recognition they deserve. What better way to do that than with their most challenging, exciting and rewarding work? (in my opinion, anyway!) I really, really want DA to find fans outside 'familiar' quarters, and pushing that way is my #1 top priority.
I'll keep dropping by as often as I can, so keep the questions coming. I saw a rough version of the artwork today, and it does not disappoint!

Hey Hey -
So the Disc 1 Tracklist is the same as the original album; we're still working out what's going to be on Disc 2.
I'd love to give a teaser MP3, but I need to get clearance first. Let me see what I can do...

Hmm - I don't know the tech specs, but I do know that the actual, original tapes from Frontline were used. Arena Rock sent me .jpegs of them -- pretty bizarre to see! I can tell you that the sound is amazing -- I'm hearing things on this record I never heard before. I'm also gaining a whole new respect for the mighty Tim Chandler.

Hey All -
I figured I'd drop a line - I'm kind of the "project co-ordinator" on this reissue. I'm a music journo and a longtime DA fan, and I am working on the project with Arena Rock & Stunt Records. It's been my dream since I was 16 to get 'Darn Floor' out on CD, and I'm happy to say we're only a few months away. I have heard the remaster (my copy arrived on Saturday) and, let me tell you, it sounds *amazing*. Really, really fantastic. It will be worth the wait!! I might be able to field any questions in the meantime... I'm pretty sure I'm authorized to do that! I can tell you this: the remaster is from the *original* tapes. It's truly remarkable.

In addition to the DA stuff (which i'll get from this site), interviews/articles on The Choir, LSU/Mike Knott, The 77s (their site is pretty complete, too), and Undercover.
I'll try to keep future posts like this to off topic!

I am probably testing everyone's goodwill by posting these sorts of things here, but it's too late to stop now...
I'm trying to get a hold of copies of hold issues of Harvest Rock Syndicate, Notebored, or True Tunes for a piece I'm working on -- if anyone has any old copies, please e-mail me at jedwardkeyes@gmail.com so we can see what can be worked out. Thanks!!

| Thread: AMG and CCM and the Terry Connection |
|

I am starting to think back on the incident, and here's what I think happened:
- They had a review of MBD already assigned -- the lukewarm one that was up there
- They screwed up and double-assigned it
- They posted the lukewarm one, then I submitted my review
- My review temporarily over-rode the previously posted lukewarm one, due to a system glitch (there is no editorial; the stuff gets posted right after the author presses "Submit" on the entry form)
- The original author realized what had happened, contacted the managers of the site, and got his original reposted.
This is all pure speculation. But it's the only thing I can figure. I also noticed that my review for "(Pray Naked)" has been removed, but a completely non-informational one on "The Seventy Sevens" is in its place -- it looks like a similar scenario.
AMG is pretty bizarre. The pay is awful, too.

I'd reviewed MBD pretty highly for AMG, but for reasons which were never explained to me, my review was taken down and replaced with the lukewarm one.

...this topic definitely made me rescind my 'lurker' status.
i'd be interested in seeing
- the Complete DA DVD (1970s to Present).
I don't know if Terry has the rights to this or not, but what I'd really love would be a 2-disc 'Darn Floor -- Big Bite' reissue. One disc could be the remastered Darn Floor, the 2nd disc could be demos & rarities from the time period. I was under the impression there was a video shot for the record (I heard the album art is essentially stills from that video). That video could also be included as a file on Disc 2.
I can dream, can't I? ;-)
