Rubbing alcohol, WD-40 and cooking oil may also work. There are commercial products like un-du as well.

much appreciated!

Yes

Anyone know anything about the relationship between Bandy, Instant, Minit & possibly other labels that seem to have a lot of overlap? Are there any good books on NOLA soul and r&b?

Thanks! That Pitter Pats track is nice, probably the same one that's on the Huey Smith comp on Bandy. I see Craig Moerer has a copy of All These Things, but on the Instant label for $75....

answering my own question from the other thread, here are a few books on New Orleans R&B / Soul, does anyone know of others? Gonna hit up the library this weekend.Rhythm and Blues in New Orleans by John Broven (Pelican, 1978)South to Louisiana: the Music of the Cajun Bayous by John Broven...

What's the title of the one you have?

Where did you post them? On discogs -- I created the entries that are there now for a handful of Bandy releases.

Those Bandy comps are great, anyone know of a full label discography? I posted most of the ones that are on discogs.

You will need a transformer that converts 220v / 50hz to 120v / 60hz.

I work in archival film preservation and I have to say DO NOT use just any clear tape for splicing; Some adhesives will actually destroy the emulsion over time, and 50 years from now someone like me may be trying to clean the adhesive residue off your film so it can be respliced with proper tape.

this sounds like telecine. Yeah, I think the only other way to transfer film to video is to use a film scanner? Not even sure if that's an option for super-8. The guy I'm thinking of is Skip Elsheimer, who does A/V Geeks: http://www.avgeeks.com/

Transferring a single 50ft reel of super-8 to digital shouldn't cost more than $20. I know a guy who does it for $0.15 per foot plus a flat fee for media (DVD or MiniDV).
