Can someone help me with a link to all the song notes Fran wrote for previous albums? I remember lovely dittles about 12 Memories and the like but can't seem to find where they are now. Also, are there notes for Ode to J. Smith?
Many thanks in advance.
PS. Happy birthday to Dougie - it is a year ago to the date that I missed you in Alberta (don't live there but would have travelled to see you guys) as I didn't hear about the show. It still guts me to this day. Hopefully someday soon - much love. |

Check the band's blog section, back in...I think February? Maybe January? for J. Smith stuff. Both Fran and Dougie wrote some entries.
Sorry, can't help with the others. |

Thanks! I knew I had read them somewhere. Does anyone know where the notes for the previous albums are? They used to be on a section in the site but I can't find it anymore. I really hope they aren't gone :( |

These are the Ode diaries song by song or there's links to the individual ones at the top. There are some old posts in the band section, just keep clicking 'older' for a while. |

Thanks so much for the direct links to the Ode songs. It is much appreciated!
I still can't find the old writeups that Fran wrote for 12 Memories and other albums anywhere. They weren't blogs or diaries but song by song analyses. It was a really beautiful thing. Every year or so I check to make sure it's still there and it always was so I assumed it'd still be around. Does anyone else remember what I'm talking about? |

You're thinking of the AAA section that used to be on the older versions of the board. Unfortunately that's gone--spent a lot of time there. :) Welcome back btw. |

I remember the 12 memories ones as well - I think there were 6 separate sessions, which were all documented, and it gave details of which songs were recorded when. Pity its gone really. |

If you want to ask TWT, try editing the first post in this thread so it has 'FAO TWT' at the beginning, that way they're more likely to notice :)
Sorry I can't help more, I'm a relative newbie. |
