Very much helped along the way by a group of samples from <a href="http://www.trifonic.com" title="">Trifonic</a>, ccMixter veterans and CC pioneers, who have recently made an entire record available under the trusty attribution non-commerical license we all love so much. A great mix of the May song that treats my song with real sensitivity. Thank you! ]]></trackInfo>

     <trackInfo><![CDATA[CS 15.11.07: I'll leave it to G. to talk about the making of this truly wonderful mix of the May song. Let me just say this: thank you SO much for your kind words and totally inspired work, this is stupendous! OK, over to G: 
	 
	 If you can’t get rid of the skeletons in your closet, you’d best teach them to dance —
George Bernard Shaw

Calendar Girl’s May is a great lyric which she sings with gusto and her customary skill and verve.
Yet I thought it would be fun to do a track which uses the lyrics to “May” as spoken by two readers.

My theory is that, divorced from its melody, the words of May speak to the listener in a different way than when sung.

I enlisted the help of two kind readers, Mr. Peter Yearsley, who has made some lovely recordings for librivox.org, and Mr. Jayson Lang, age 7, who, rumour has it, is a major musical influence upon mixter JLang. My thanks to these two gentlemen for their excellent contribution to this project.

Among the birds on this piece is the mockingbird who sits regularly atop my chimney, who is recorded from the fireplace grate. The teapot is my wifes.

In my vision, this poem is recited
in an outdoor setting, in a suburban Summer setting in what the English so quaintly call the garden. I have a vague image of someone lost between the passing years and childhood. I have in mind Denis Thatcher, the footlights to a Gilbert & Sullivan opera, and a host of foolish things we called the 20th Century]]></trackInfo>

     <trackInfo><![CDATA[CS.26.10.07: Loveshadow delivers a mournful and affective mix of the May song. He says he was thinking a lot about the disasterous wildfires in California and the lyrics of the May song chimed. Can I take this opportunity to direct your attention to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Davis_(scholar)" title="">Mike Davis</a>, the scholar and polemicist who has written at length on the ecology and sociology of fire in Cali. Check out his wonderful book 'City of Quartz' or if you want to know more specifics, this <a href="http://www.radicalurbantheory.com/mdavis/firebugs.html" title="">article</a>, written in 1994 and now more pertinent than ever. Thank you Loveshadow, I hope your friend's house is OK!! CGx]]></trackInfo>
