Hello Dave....Spotify I think only works for you Uk-ites..is this correct???

Potentially a very good spot there!

I can't see how this is free unless you are invited by a paying member. Am I missing a secret button somewhere?

Spotify

Hi Folks

yes I think Spotify is UK only, sorry about that.

Regarding joining Spotify, originally it was by invitation only and each person that was able to join was given 6 (I think) invites to pass on. When I joined it had been opened up to anyone so no more invitations where needed. However, it seems it has gone back to invitation only, so If you are not invited then you need to find someone who has a spare invitation.

Maybe there are some invitations hanging around on the forum members that they would be willing to share?

Hope that you can find one.

Regards

Dave

I just checked my spotify account and I think that because I too was invited to join (;} Ta very much you know who you are), I have no invites of my own. When I do I will advertise them here on a first come first served basis (that's when I can figure out how to earn them )

Found it on the IsoHunt bittorrent feeds in the USA. Nice collection. Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks Andy, I've downloaded several of the slower one's, do I need to change the Key? If the track is in Eb....what do I play it in for Alto and Soprano.

Ps how's the Scales/patterns practise going?
Ciao

Work and a cold have slowed down my practice lately, but I am anxious to try out the ideas that you shared soon.
