Having just responded to Frank Sexton’s thread about buying music, I started thinking again about liner notes. Does it bother others that iTunes rarely includes the liner notes in their jazz library? I really like to know who is in the line-up as well as some of the interesting facts that often accompany the CD. |

I have used allmusic.com to
find the credits and good
background information on
specific albums. They upgraded
their format and have lost a
lot of the fun stuff like
searching every recorded
version of a song by title.
The flash format does not
print and the new format is
difficult to navigate. What
other sites do people use to
complete session information?

liner notes in a readable font.

"mugsy"-I agree with you.Sometimes they
have "digital booklets" with some of the
recordings,but more often they don’t.So,I
too find myself missing information I’d
like to know-Who’s on first? Who’s on
second?,etc.

Doesn’t bother me that much.
There’s so much info available on the
web that it makes liner notes
obsolete. Unlike the good old days
when I bought Pink Floyd’s Wish You
Were Here on album, and got a
poster and postcards included within.
Now I am really showing my age.
