What's going on around here?

So just thought I would give you guys a little heads up as to what's going on with the site. First you may have missed the comment I made regarding my absence, so here it is up front:

Sorry guys, but OB Dan was right....I did
lose interest. Got tired of fooling with the uploads and it just got to where it
felt like an obligation. But let me tell you what, I come here after not even
checking the site for a month or two and see these wonderful comments.This one
in particular reminded me of why I started doing this in the first
place:

"jeremiah said... this is an excellent comp,
always love getting these. Hadn't heard Malcolm Holcombe before, that was a nice
introduction. Thanks for putting it together.

That's really what it's all about folks, and
in the words of the might Louvin brothers.....'tis sweet to be
remembered

So here's my plan, you may have noticed the new digs....that was step one, step two is to get all the posts in the archives upped as torrents, and properly labelled so they are easier to navigate, step three is to restructure my links and other odds and ends (most of those links are dead now anyway), and step four is to keep on posting. You guys and your comments are what keep me going and what brought me back.

About the torrents, I decided to start using torrents because they seem to have a longer shelf life than file hosting sites. So long as my hard drive functions, you can bet I'll keep em seeded, they may be slow downloads for the first few people but they will always be there. If you don't know how to use torrents and what they are, here is a good how to (BTW I recommend either uTorrent or BitTorrent).

Now I plan on bringing this blog out of the shadows a bit, pretty much everything I post on here nowadays is legit anyway, save for the samplers. If someone has a problem with a sampler I post, of course I will remove the offending material (this seems to be a recurring problem lately for other blogs). I plan on posting more news and informational type items in between the music posts. Also occasionaly will be pulling items out of the archives and featuring them. When I do this I will put a fresh download link on it.

About the samplers, no longer will I be doing a monthly Truesounds, but quarterly. This was one of the things that burnt me out before....trying to come up with a quality Truesounds each and every month by the end of the month. I think you guys will get higher quality samplers out of the deal.

Finally I need some of you guys help, while digging through the archives and re-upping and labelling I have come across a few of the older items which I no longer have due to a hard drive crash I had a year or so ago. So I'm asking you guys if you have some of these items to please send them to me at truersound@gmail.com. Right now stuff I'm missing is:

Drive By Truckers - Live Acoustic and Otherwise (this was actually the first one I made covers for)
Scott Miller - Live at Smith's Old Bar Jan. 29, 2004
Murder Ballads & Songs About Killin' (kills me I can't find this....my first "sampler" so to speak...it was the proto sampler)
Son Volt - The Search I-Tunes Exclusive Tracks

Thanks in advance, and thanks especially for sticking around
