<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I second that notion. I have thought a lot about recording
people/friends gathered around telling each other stories, or just having
good conversations in general (hours and hours, over days, weeks, months, years,
or whatever) and then editing them (the best parts) to cool music. Not
quite like a DJ using small samples to make a song, and not as
elaborate as Joe's cast of actors improvising, but somewhere in-between. Oh, and
a little more random, abstract, and less formulaic than "This American
Life". Maybe there is something there, maybe not. I must admit that is one part
of the reason I started "The Los Angeles Joe Frank Collective" as perhaps a
vehicle to that end. No hidden mics (btw)! Who knows. Any other ideas out there
amongst our fellow frankophilian listites.</FONT></DIV>

remember reading a joe frank interview where he was talking about the
distinctive sound of his voice on his later broadcasts. apparently it
was somewhat accidental and was created by playing back the tape after using
a certain kind of noise reduction. i forget the details. anyway,
thought some of you might be interested in a thread of this nature.<?/smaller><?/fontfamily><BR> <BR><?fontfamily><?param Arial><?smaller>Derrick
