Great to hear that Oregon are available to download from Dime. I have tried many times over several years to register but only suceeded once - then I could not...
I wouldn't give a dime for it. No, as a matter of fact, you are not alone. Maybe I am. I was at the concert in Seattle as well where I was able to enjoy a few...
Lionel - I think you're comparing apples and oranges here. Dime-a-Dozen isn't like Napster or Limewire, etc. Dime and other sites like it only deal with...
So, how much do you pay Oregon for watching their show? Lionel ... From: goosenberg@... To: Ralph_Towner@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, April 28, 2008...
We can't pay them for that, but the issue is generally that no one should SELL those recordings. The only ones who should earn money from their music are the...
... And Napster is fully legitimate now. It's a pay service that pays the artists, not a p2p client anymore. It uses a different file format than the...
Just got done hanging out with Ralph Towner and the band. I helped organize their concert and some workshops at the university here in southern Oregon. The...
Hi Ed - thanks for the post. Did Ralph make any mention of where his 12 string guitar playing is at? As the Portland show was the 3rd time I've seen Oregon in...
I didn't ask him about the 12 string but I'm guessing it's a matter of logistics and limiting the gear that they carry. Since Ralph lives in Rome, it's a lot...

Folks: I recently found a truly extraordinary unofficial Towner recording that is downloadable on the Net if you can handle .rar files. (Even Macs can do it...
Hi all, Not a specific review but, rather, coverage of a week-long trip to Norway that included performances by some unknown Norwegian artists and many who...

I saw Ralph recently and reminded him of the rumour he and she were going to do a project. He said it kinda fell through the cracks, but then said he really...
