Again, May we please have the transcripts of this.
thomas I don’t know how to do that. do you have any low or zero cost ideas?
I see Otter.AI? Must be others too?
Thanks, John, for the reference to Barber’s Adagio for Strings. I thought I was the only one who went out of their way to find out the name of this piece. I finally found out when it was played at the Royal Albert Hall for The Proms in tribute for the fallen on 9/11. I wept.
thank you; I love that piece. My wife Betty danced to it in concert at Moming Dance Art center. I believe moming is gone now.
Good morning John, hope you’re feeling better. What makes these shows so cool is the casual vibe you guys carry. Reminds me of sitting in a shot and beer joint on the South Side bullshitting with a few buddies over a couple of cheap beers and a few shots of whiskey. Yes, cheap beer like Miller High life. Not microbrewery quaff. The cheap stuff. Out of a tap. And a few good cigars if it’s an old timer bar. And whatever baseball game is on television. Yes, even The Cubs. I wouldn’t need any transcription for that and I don’t need a transcription for this. Keep up the good work. Glad to be a subscriber.
Good listening today. Brought back some old memories.
I’ll have to watch Platoon again, a powerful movie.
That was the first time I heard Adagio for Strings, beautiful.
Several times in the mid to late 70’s I went to the Moming Dance Theater.
My college roommate was a friend of Jackie Radis.
Creative dancing performances ahead of its time.
Hope you are feeling better, John!
