- It looks like "Temperature of Roast Filk" is temporarily orphaned...
-
- I received a call from Tom Smith last night. According to him, "Songs by Tom
- Smith" is a semi-authorized bootleg of his songs, done mainly for the purpose
- of submitting them to Dr. Demento. Tim Ryan is not supposed to have made more
- than 2-3 copies (current estimates are that he has made a few dozen copies)
- and Tom Smith is not receiving any royalties from copies of this tape.
-
- "Temperature of Revenge" will be on Tom's second (next) tape, which is/will be
- titled "Domino Death" and is being produced by Bill Roper. They had hoped to
- get this tape out by the 1992 Worldcon, and didn't, but it should be out REAL
- SOON NOW. They didn't tell me why it was late, but hey, they don't have to
- and that's cool in my book.
-
- Please do not order copies of "Songs by Tom Smith" from Tim Ryan. Tom gets
- damned little income from his music as it is, and none at all from this tape.
- The availability of "Domino Death" will probably be announced on this echo by
- Bill Roper. When he does, buy it.

- (The preceding has been an unpaid non-political announcement. SUPPORT
- PROFESSIONAL MUSICIANS, and amateurs too!)
