Sorry I know this is for MX5 car stuff but if you have ever dreamed of playing
the guitar or even just like guitar music. This will put a big smile on your
face. A guitar wiz friend sent it to me and assures me it's all for real.

Pachobel is probably spinning in his grave. De-composing at least, but I think
even he would say "THAT'S WAY COOL"!

Don't know who the musican is, but he knows how to play it.

As the tutor of a young JS Bach, Pachelbel would at least have been no
stranger to plagiarisation!

(thanks for injecting some light-heartedness back into the list, Gazza)

I don't like forums personally - far too hard to use.

Thanks for posting that Gazza. Thoroughly enjoyed it and it's not what I
would usually listen to (old fogey here). Just goes to show that anything
done well is worthwhile.
Now to go and crank it up in my GREEN MX5!! Should drown out the sucking
noises.

Hey there

Have finally managed to see & listen to that piece. From the comments I
gather that it is a well known classical piece. Can someone more cultured
remind me again who the composer is and what is the title of the piece?

Thanks Gazza - loved it!

I can play like that ... in my dreams!

Johannes Pachelbel - Canon in D. 17th century composer - I seem to recall this
was reconstructed from a fragment of music, but not sure who by. The canon is
the only thing anyone remembers by him - it must have been used for some
commercial or other but don't know what.

I'm all for forums myself.

But for old-school mailing lists such as this, gmail is pretty
awesome. Not only is it graphical-ad free and *fast* (even on dialup
and clunky old laptops) but you have 2GB of storage and its easy to
setup different "labels" to categorise incoming mail. And you can
search it. And you can download mail to your desktop if you really
have to, also free unlike Yahoo.

My inbox currently has about 4000 emails, ~350MB ... ;-)

Try this:

As long as your computer will play midi files. All should be able to.
Sounds rather tame after Jerry C's version!

Canon in D major written by Johann Pachelbel (Germany 1653-1706). Seems this
is all he is remembered for.
This gives more info and links to a lot of midi and mp3 versions.
It was used at the funeral of Lady Diana Spencer.
Must get back to work. Lucky I am self employed and work from home!

That's no recommendation - my brother's comment about the revised version of
Candle in the Wind that Elton John sang at the same event was that he'd
rather have a record of the two minute silence!

Properly done a forum can also be an email list. So that those
interested in a forum interface (with the ability to better search old
posts, ignore threads, clear the email folders) can use it and those
prefering the email list (with the simple access, saving of
'important' emails) can still get the emails.

Personally I'd go for the forums rather than the emails - but am also
aware that I might miss stuff because I don't check every thread in a
forum - but then again I also just delete/archive whole sections of
emails anyway.
