Title: Just received Trammell's LF CDs...
Post by: TWCJim on November 16, 2011, 09:42:47 PM
After seeing numerous videos online featuring Trammell's LF songs, I decided it was time for me to purchase my copy of the 3-disc set.

I emailed Trammell to see if the CDs were still available and he said they were and he thanked me for my inquiry. A few days later, I sent out the money order. Coincidentally, Trammell mailed out the discs on the same day I mailed out the money order. I received the CDs two days later in the mail. To me, I thought that was pretty quick for a shipment of 3 CDs :)

Anyway, I listened to the CDs and they are fantastic. The artwork on all three discs are pretty swell, and Trammell even signed his name on all of them (see my pics of the discs below.)

In conclusion, if you are reading this, and do not yet have Trammell's CDs, I would strongly encourage you to order your copy of Trammell's CDs, so you can own a piece of TWC LF music history, like I do  B)

On a related note, while asking if the CDs were still available, Trammell said that he is currently working on a new CD of similar music. He hopes to have the new stuff out around Christmastime, and he is looking forward to sharing it with others  :biggrin:

EDIT: I was able to get my scanner finally working (whereas before it was broken) so I was able to scan the discs (the previous images were taken from my camera.)

Hmm... new designs on the discs. I got mine back in 2008. Those look better than the ones I have. He signed mine too, but in pen instead of in silver sharpie. IMO, the new discs look better than the old ones...

Got mine back in 2006 and they have the more familiar cloud backgrounds on them. Mine also do not have the autographs on them.

My bad then. Guess I should've used a better topic title...  :whistling:

On the other hand, maybe Trammell's new stuff might air on a future playlist. Who knows?  :dunno:

Was that what he suggested when he sent you the CD's? I thought he was composing new music for TWC a while back..?

I received mine in 2006. No artwork and no signatures. ;) It's amazing how many emails I've gotten over the years asking if Trammell's CDs were still available. If they weren't, would I have a page mentioning that they were for sale? :unsure:

Unfortunately, he never mentioned anything about his new music possibly surfacing on a future TWC playlist. All he said was that he is working on new stuff. But wouldn't it be nice if Trammell's new music appeared on a TWC playlist? It'll be just like 1996 all over again  :P

I got mine back in 2008, and they were autographed, but had different artwork.

THANK YOU for buying them! Some moron posted all of the songs in their entirety on Youtube. Please if you are interested in these songs buy them and support the artist.

I emailed Mr. Starks last night showing interest in buying the CDs.. hopefully he replies. Jim, if you dont mind me asking, did you use the email on his website or the one provided at TWC Classics to contact him?

I used the email provided at TWC Classics (the Comcast one.)

Also, I agree with Martin. The person who posted the full Trammell songs on YouTube is indeed a moron  :nono:

Support Trammell and buy the CDs  ;)

I know, I've been wanting to bring it to Trammell's attention, but I'm afraid if I do that YT will delete all the LF clips of his songs too :hmm:

For those wondering about Trammell's upcoming CD, I found his website and it looks like it had been remodeled for his new CD. View the site here (http://www.trammellstarks.com/).

He's also on Facebook, Twitter and on YouTube. I already subscribed to him on YT  :happy:

Awesome! I would be interested in hearing how similar and how different in style it will be from his other songs.  :yes:

At the very least YT could automatically credit him when his work is included in a video. Sorta like what they do with other artists. It's just so annoying having his entire albums up there like that. It's nice to see that there is enough requests for his work that he is releasing a new album!! Can't wait for it

YT must caught those as well, judging from his status update from 1 day ago:

Weatherman436 From what I've heard, sounds like all Trammell Stark videos have to be removed from Youtube, the full version of his songs, his music on Weatherscan, Weather Channel glitches with his music, everything must be gone. =(

Good. Because real fans buy the real thing...if you like the music, buy the CD!

Not sure about the rest of those cases but I spoke to the individual in question and he kindly agreed to remove them. I appreciate their support!
