Re: I GAVE IT ALL AWAY

First off let me say, thank you for sharing. One thing that I find funny is that I am the only one divorced in my family and the only one that doesn't have grey hair. Maybe you just need a bit of stupid. Here is a jewel from the archives: It was very cold that Sunday morning in North Carolina and we...

Elvis Costello - Rockpalast 1983

I just noticed Shabby Doll on Youtube. Does anyone here have this they could up on a tracker? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQH5wIgPrsI&videos=mFtIPsI0-J0&playnext_from=TL&playnext=1 Update: I think this is the audio anyway, kindly reseeded on Dime. http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-de...

Some people use Trader's Little Helper (free) to convert the Flac tracks to .wav and play them. I use Audacity (also free) to play and edit files

Re: Elvis Costello 1980-08-23 Heatwave Festival, Mosport, ON, CA

You just scroll down til you see the attached files EC Heat Wave.torrent under the details. You need an account and bittorrent client (like Utorrent or Transmission) or if you don't want to bother I can set up a direct link you can download from. I have not tested the speed so I can't tell which is ...

Re: Elvis Costello fans I need your help!

I'm sorry for your loss but what a special thing to do for someone. Do they have an ipod or the like you could get some ideas? Maybe a playlist on the computer. I would love "I'll Wear It Proudly" played for me. Let's see "Pump it Up" too. Then something with his lyrical genius &...

I love when he wears those sunglasses! They're so big & tacky & gold & Elvis Presley-ish & man-slutty. But somehow they look really fantastic on him! Bad-ass really is the best word so true. - I don't mind the unshaven at least that looks balanced. Oh well, nothing a little Photosho...

Re: Torrents

Thanks, but I use Itunes, Audacity or Xact which I think is the equivalent to EAC which you can get from etree.org. Regarding mp3's I don't use VBR anymore or encode below 192 because I love to use a portable surround sound adapter with my mp3 player, until I get a portable flac player.

CD or LP?

I would like to get some of EC's early stuff but am worried about the quality. I hear mixed reviews of the mixing on the CD compared to the Vinyl release. I have read the Rhino reissues are mixed well but the Hip-O CDs (which are on his main site) are mixed poorly. I have a record player but would h...

Torrents

Is there an EC exclusive torrent site? Because I see a lot of nice stuff but its all on rapidshare or megaupload. Plus Dime ratio takes so long and the one I'm after is dead :cry:

I'm not that tech savvy but what do you need to house torrent tracker links. No official stuff torrented of course.
