Your generosity of spirit in the sharing of 'lost' music and the carefully researched notes you guys add reilluminating the lives of musicians was I guess always open to abuse and it was a matter of "when" rather than "if" this was going to happen. I myself noticed tracks that were clearly lifted from this site posted to You Tube last year sometime... the source was unacknowledged which I though bad form but no one was making money off your finds.... oh well, I guess I will just wait and see what happens.... but thank you for explaining the situation and more importantly thank you all yet again for all the audial pleasure and the odd hop skip and twist moments you have afforded me personally over the years I have followed you so far!Eyepictureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15501216466468548735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-16279502386751714672015-04-07T17:53:47.167+01:002015-04-07T17:53:47.167+01:00How utterly depressing that your hard work and bou...How utterly depressing that your hard work and boundless generosity is being hijacked.

Only greed, selfishness and/or malice would motivate people to act so thoughtlessly. ElectricJive is a blog par excellence for selflessly unearthing and availing exotic music sounds that one can otherwise just dream of in the modern day.

I agree: it would be ideal to share these recordings as before. Some careful reconsideration is underway among the Electric Jive team. The reason being: People been selling the music we shared for free at electricjive....even lifting the pictures from the site. This example below is not the first one. There is another example of an entire bootleg vinyl LP being for sale.<br />Original post: http://electricjive.blogspot.co.uk/…/mabel-mafuya-on-78-rpm…<br />For sale at amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/Zulu-Jive-78-Rpm-1956/dp/B00UC0SNWU<br />The offending label: MUSICAL ARK<br />What do you think?Chris Albertynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18201820803406421446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-19526354599025135972015-04-07T12:39:21.462+01:002015-04-07T12:39:21.462+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Chris Albertynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18201820803406421446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7400063036260543724.post-13403903923534151902015-04-07T11:11:09.917+01:002015-04-07T11:11:09.917+01:00Chris, thank you! there are some great sounds here...Chris, thank you! there are some great sounds here. The mIx tape/ jukebox playlist is fun and the format allows immediate play but as ever there are favourites that I want to keep and access separately and then repeats of inexisting tracks that I own or have downloaded from the blog already over the years that I would prefere to be able to cut out in order to deduplicate. It is probably more hassle for you or you might be doing it to prevent the tracks from being highjacked and posted elsewhere without reference to Electric JIve but all things considered, I think many of the fans of the blog would appreciate the posting of a secondary link to a play list with separatable tracks (as you have done in the past with "Office Christmas party" playslists) . Let us know your thoughts when you get the time ....
