It's a GREAT idea. I didn't contribute last time and I'm hoping to get
some things in this one...however...

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT POST THIS TO REC.MUSIC.GAFFA!!!!! PLEASE!

Because Gaffa is also a mailing list, these lists cannot be avoided.
Post it to rec.music.misc and we can get them at our leisure, when we
have the time and disc space. Not everyone gets net access for free.
We pay, monthly & per hour, plus our long-distance phone bills. 

If there are those on .gaffa who do not have access to rec.music.misc
but want the survey, you can send it to them via e-mail or they can get 
it via FTP. Please, I ask on behalf of everyone on the mailing list-DO NOT
POST this to rec.music gaffa.

They are great to read but just take up too much space in our mailbox.

Combine the two. Comments AND essential albums. It never hurts to have
specifics on both subjects.

> Current List: (There are 1400+ artists in this list....)

There are some you don't have that I can think of right away. I'll be
working on this one.

I was not planning to post the results to Gaffa for this survey.  Last
time I did the survey, I did send the results out via Gaffa and that
was a mistake.  I am planning to run the survey in Gaffa, and
rec.music.misc and mail the results to those who are interested from
Gaffa. I will post the results in rec.music.misc. (I will tell folks
when the results are in...)

P.S. The results will also be via FTP from vacs.uwp.wisc.edu when they
are done. The previous results are there now.

Don't you wish there was good fractal technology in the 60's?
