I was in awe, when I first experienced this kind of large scale transfer of rusties from one server to another. Tonight, I am no less impressed. It's almost like something out of science fiction, a community magically transferred from one place to another without them hardly noticing it, as if we were all picked up by something akin to the transporter system on "Star Trek."
Except that I know it's not magic. Someone went to the trouble of making it seem that way.
Thank you David, for giving us the means to stay connected.

Anyone know about this site?
Yahoo! Rusties,
I was looking for some of the NY film/video that has been officially released on vhs format, to fill in some gaps in my collection. In my online quest I stumbled upon the Seattle based jazzsteps.com website and no, I have no commercial interest in this venture...What I was wondering was if any of you have ever used this vendor, and if so, what kind of customer service did you recieve? They seem to have prices that run 20% cheaper than some other more well known e-tailers, what I was wondering was if it were too good to be true or not... Thanks in advance for any and all replies, either offlist or not.

This album has some great moments. Two of my favorite songs are right next to each other: Ride My Llama/Pocahontas. Ride My Llama has a very romantic atmosphere to it. I always have visions of walking in a forest with my loved one and listening to this song. The music in Pocahontas is also quite beautiful, which adds a poignancy to the tragic lyrics. The song Sail Away has a particularly memorable line in "Where the people are the real stars/for the rest of their lives"
Welfare Mothers from side two is the song that really gets to me. That song just cranks on a musical level. I just love that groove he gets into. I have friends who hate the lyrics, saying they are sexist, and I can understand that perspective, but still, I love the music. Also, I love the backing vocals on the song Powderfinger. When they sing "Ooooh Oooooh" in the background it sounds haunting, like voices calling out from some forgotten time. I just love that.

Please make first Yahoo digest, please! ;)
Anyway, any of you ever browse ASCAP's registry?
It's a pretty cool resource.
So I searched our boy Neil (my boy Neil will be strong and as tall as a tree...) and there are some mysterious songs here that I don't know. Some are obviously alternate (or mistaken) titles of songs we do know, but some seem to be songs we don't know at all. Among the ones I don't recognize are:
Boom Boom Boom Easy Answers How Ya Doin'? (ha ha, so he's copyrighted that, huh?) It's So Hard To Wait Quit Timberline Watch For The Hook What Are Their Names
And then there's the BMI database (ASCAP's competitor), which features many early Neil compositions. (search young neil)
Baby Go Because I Love You High School Graduation (I've only heard OF it) I'll Wait Forever Ich Vertraue Dir (Sie Leibt Dich, ja ja ja!) Mountain Way Panz Panz Panz (I've heard of this, Dance 3X in Dutch?) Slowly Burning
Any thoughts on any of these tunes?

Re: AOTW --RNS-- Powderfinger
Mike Cordova wrote: Welfare Mothers still ranks as one of the, hmm, rankest songs in Neil's catalog. For me anyway. It's a novelty tune; ok for a listen or two, but not much more. I eventually warmed up to Sedan Delivery; I used to think it was kind of a forced punk sound. I think it has stood the test of time though. I don't know. I guess you're right......WM is rankier than SD, whose only redeeming quality is its mention of sacred roots.....but, personally, I could live just dandy without either of them. bh aka brown-skinned indian ~~~the music matters~~~ >>>--- --->

The best thing I can say about this album is that after buying ATGR, Harvest & TTN, I wasn't really a fan of Neil Young.
I then heard 'Powderfinger' and became a fanatic.
That's about the best compliment I can pay this album.
And funnily enough, I wouldn't swap the album version of Sail Away for 100 versions of 'My My, Hey Hey'. I love the song to bits.

I'm sorry, but if the character in Powderfinger killed himself in the face of the approaching boat, then he is a big fat LOSER, and I don't like that song anymore.

Digest 0 will now be issued...

Welcome to Volume 7 of the Rust List, now hosted on YahooGroups (aka "YG"). Hopefully we'll have better luck with delivery here than we have had lately with Topica.
There was no practical way for me to extract from the Topica subscriber list which kind of subscription you had there and set your Yahoo subscription to match. Since ~80% of Rusties subscribe to the Digest, I have initially set all Rust subscriptions on YG to Digest. If you subscribed on Topica to "messages" or "web only" (aka "no mail") you will have to change your subscription using one of these commands:
-- For individual messages, send a blank note to rust-normal@...
-- For "web only", send a blank note to rust-nomail@...
You'll need to send that note from the same email address that you currently subscribe with.
More details about sending commands are at That page is linked off HyperRust's front page, in case you lose this bookmark.
As soon as I get the digest containing this post to be delivered, I will turn on regular posting to Rust on YG. I will also be switching the "rust@..." address to point there. That's the address that should always be used for sending posts to Rust. If it's already in your address book, continue using it.
Following this post will be 24 empty posts so that the first digest will be issued right away. After that, regular Rust will flow...
Again, remember to always send your Rust posts to rust@... and it'll get to the right place... RE*AC*TOR
