When I saw this picture it reminded me of the Stevie photoshoot so I decided to 1.play a joke and 2. make it an even four pictures as I did in the last three threads I put together from that photo session. So far, out of like 200 people, you're the only one who noticed. And thank you Betsy for all your kind thank you's. BTW are you a mod now?

Here's a little ditty I found on the web. An interview with some musician.


AT: I'd like for you to explain to me how you compose music based on samples. Where do you get the samples, how do you create them, what kind of samples you are looking for, and what sample-based music is all about.

JG: Well the whole idea of taking samples and decontextualizing them for me is based on the incredible excitement of being able to pick bits of music or sound that you like and manipulating them to make something new. I can remember when I first discovered the world of sampling and all of its possibilities. It was just as exciting to me as when it became possible to do home recording with a cassette 4-track.

It was this realization that all of the sounds that mean something to me or trigger an emotional or physical response can be taken and pulled apart or repeated or effected. It’s like being able to listen to your favorite 5 seconds of a song over and over and then adding other sounds or bits of other songs and creating a whole new piece of music. One of the first pieces I did was just using the album Tusk by Fleetwood Mac as source material. I love the production sound of the songs by Lindsey Buckingham. I had sampled a little intro from one of the songs into the keyboard and looped it and when I changed the loop length to 0 it made this strange rhythm that seemed to have a life of its own. It was one of those happy accidents. I loved that loop and used it all the time.

I started sampling more parts of that record and just experimented with effects and stuff and then loaded them up into the drum pads and by a ton of trial and error came up with an ‘instrument’ that I could play. A lot of the samples were unrecognizable from the source but something about the sound quality of that record still came through. In terms of what kind of samples I’m looking for, I guess initially I was sampling parts of old records that I liked, Kraftwerk or PiL and then just playing around with them until I found a loop or rhythm I liked. Now, I am working from specific ideas that I have, giving myself more of a framework.

Stevie and the rest of Fleetwood Mac would be in their hotel rooms in the city of Tokyo, Japan. Comfortable and well rested from the tour break and acclamated to the extreme time zone change from the United States. Three shows in this city starting Feb.3,1980.

Stevie used her last $111.00 to buy a beautiful black blouse for the cover of the Buckingham Nicks album, but Lindsey made her take it off anyway...
