JPS - Rare Blend Question

squirefan01 · Post by **squirefan01** » Wed Mar 21, 2007 10:16 am

Hey Jeff,

I just got hooked on iTunes, anfd found some old (1999,2002) Rare Blend there, Are you on those CDs?

I know I have asked about this before, but to get the best experience of your bass lines in the band, what CDs should I get? I know there is alot of newer stuff since 2002.

Do you get the same monetary cut from your CDs bought through iTunes as through your band's site? I like to download them (I hate to wait) as opposed to ordering through the mail, but I will order them if I have to.

Thanks,

Greg

I should be on those, can you list the titles? I am not sure about the royalties, but I sure hope we get some!

Evolution Theory, Stops Along The Way, Infinity, Cinefusion.

...and a few Soundtracks (Coyote Ugly, Driven).

thanks John...I had not searched enough, and did not see Stops Along the Way.

Looks like I can get it all here then. What do you suggest Jeff? Everything?

My band's on iTunes, don't recall getting a check (or how we even got on there!) so we must not have sold, or were being ripped! Dag-blasted music industry!

I am not on Cinefusion (that was pre-JPS!) and those soundtracks are not us. I found out that we do not get much for the iTunes downloads, so I'd much appreciate you guys buying from our website www.rareblend.net. If you had to start with one, I'd get Stops Along the Way for sure.

OK Jeff. I don't mind steering some money away from Apple, that's for sure!

Got the CDs yesterday. Great service from CD Baby. Listening to Apochromatic Wanderings right now. Great stuff Jeff! Do you play the 4005 on most songs?

The Ricks are only on Stops Along The Way. On Evolution Thoery I was using fretted and fretless Zon basses, and a Rick Turner Renaissance RB-5FL. So Apo would be the Zon Sonus 5/1.

When we do Apo live, after the keyboard/guitar spacey interlude part, we go into a bit of The Fish before the drum solo.
