So, we’ve built quite a library over the last couple of years, consisting of live performances we’ve recorded in our area (if 65 miles away is local, which of course it is, globally…), and in that particular spot, it’s well known that I’ll stand on my head and edit and fiddle for hours to produce nice recordings which are especially respectful of the performers (once in a while, we chop a show for being sub-standard in some audio sense), and ultimately we share that stuff at Internet Archive, which is dedicated to stuff like live recordings of music performances.

Once in a while, though, a performer just says no when I ask them if I can record the night. While others just whip out their phones and record, I ask first. A guy said no the other night, but the night before that I attended a local event which included two hours of entertainment after a banquet. I wasn’t there to record the band-I actually belonged to the organization, but hey, I have the electronic gizmos and tripods and stuff right there in the car……………….

So, this week we are featuring South 71, a local trio. These three recordings vary a little bit from the Archive versions in that they now fade in and out a little, have just a snitch of reverb added to them and were AI remastered. Band members are Barbara Johnson, Mel Kimblad, and Maury Muhm.
