Hi Claudio, I do not intend for this to start a discussion of language but I have to point out that although most Americans my age think that we do NOT need to...
THANKS, RODGER, AGAIN : i HAVE A B.A IN ENGLISH & PORTUGUESE, AND 25 YEARS TEACHING PORTUGUESE AT A UNIVERSITY HERE IN RIO , NOW i'M RETIRED INTERESTING...
Claudio, Locally, in Spanish, the word they use a lot as the English equivalent of "What?" is "Munday?" (SP) That causes confusion for some non-Spanish...
thanks , Rodgers, for your rich comments; I too am highly indebted to Ray and the Singers (my addiction) for the language aspect too, let alone the sublime...
Rodger Your remark about good diction in Ray Conniff music is very true. It helped me learn English in my adolescence. The same happened with Frank Sinatra...
I get your point. There is no thing as an EXACT literal translation from any language to another. There always exists some ambiguity. Yeah, sure, you can...
Kudi kudi pa! Everyone has at some time or other has had this happen to them. As we age, it seems that it happens more often. LOL Singers, if they want to be...
That is quite an understatement, Rodger! Learning Chinese can be fun, especially once you are able to take the translations apart and see the logic. For...
I was in that group and I don't know what happened but it sounds pretty childish. I'm talking about the moderators behavior. "Can't play by my rules? I'll wipe...
Interesting, Joe. I was in the "Original Group" and was a quiet observer of the process, and did not see or experience it that way. After hearing and seeing...
perhaps, just "Young at Heart" ... From: "Joe Hodges" <joehodges80@...> To: <ray_conniff@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Saturday, April 05, 2008 8:49 PM Subject:...
Mr. Hodges, I am in that new group, it is called Beautiful Instrumentals and Vocals. I was in the original group "Beautiful Instrumentals" for about 5 years. I...
I am happy to be in this Ray Conniff group. I have an answer to your question of the Beautiful Instrumentals group. I am in it, I have been for 5 years. It is...
Judith, your right and I'm sorry I vented my frustrations in this group. I didn't see all the messages that started all this and i was too quick to blame the...
Good for you, Joe. As I mentioned before, there was a heck of a lot going on under the surface that we just do not need to re-hash. We need to focus on...
In the process of feeding my newfound fascination with music blogs, I came across a most unusual entry: The "Lost" Ray Conniff Dub Sessions, from 1977. I quote...
i find it extremely poor taste when people feel entitled to copy, distort people's work, as if they were their own work. especially to conniff's well crafted...
I agree with you but unfortunately there are some individuals that will do anything to make money. Rodger (In McAllen Texas USA) ... From: waltbriski@... ...
Today I received volumes 2 and 3 of the "Retro Collection Series" as well as Encore Of Golden Hits. The Retro discs are packaged in cardboard gatefold covers,...
doug, would you please, provide the link, so i can buy a copy myself? is the package really nice? nice enough to purchase it, though i have all the tracks...
Walter, I've posted the cover images in the Photos section of this group. These images are from eBay as I haven't had time to scan them yet. Here are links to...
ahhhhhhh... i see. it would be really great to see the covers printed, like real albums... the same way, i bought claudine longet's releases from japan,...
Lighten up, guys. How exactly is this guy making money by simply having some fun with old recordings and sharing his fun on the internet? Just because someone...
a while ago, i think someone brought up here, how unhappy ray was, when someone either sampled or remixed his music. i found the blog extremely tacky and not...
Kai Winding! Now that is a name I have not heard for a long time. My favorite Conniff album is "Ray Conniff and Billy Butterfield - - Kiddin' Around."...
Has anyone heard anything more about the projected reissues from Collectables? Doug? I am considerably more excited about those than the "Retro" productions,...
Thanks for the response, Manfred. A funny thing has been happening though. I hit the link, and up pop about every Chinese popup in existence. I will try...
