Decades ago, I attended a small Science Fiction convention. One of the entertainers, Leslie Fish, is a Filk artist (Filk is "science fiction folk music) and I bought a cassette tape from her of an album FIRESTORM: Songs Of World War III. Cassettes don't have a very long life span so I (being low tech) had the tape converted to AIFF and again, years later, I converted it to MP3. This album (?) was never released by the artist although she has a lot of other music that is in print. She also breeds polydactyl cats for intelligence and is and all around VIP (Very Interesting Person). Because I'm attracted to morbidity in music (and other media) I always wanted to share this with others but I'm also one of those old guys who honors copyrights. A week ago, I managed to contact her and she gave me written permission to offer this album to anyone I wanted without remuneration. Her only requirement was that I identify the work as being that of Leslie Fish and she requested that I name her website, http://lesliefish.com/. I've researched (as in googled) and there is no other place on this planet where you could obtain this album. You can find the lyrics, but no place to obtain the music itself. Because of the 3rd generation transfer of tape/AIFF/MP3, the quality is meh and the volume is a bit low. But I feel it's worth it. The songs reflect the breakdown of society, the war itselff, the aftermath and the revenge. There is substantial political and philosophical content, this is music that makes you think. Now I'm new here and I hope that posting these links won't be a fatal error. I assure you the MP3s are not booby-trapped, that your downloading them is with full consent and that you may further share them if you wish. My purpose is to make a contribution, I have no other benefit of any kind in doing this. I paid to rent the "space" these are stored in. This is the whole album: http://www.mediafire.com/folder/dkxr51w4g4l3x/Firestorm_by_Leslie_Fish and these are the individual links to listen or download each song. I added the numbers in front of each title to keep them in storyline order, the original album may be slightly different. http://www.mediafire.com/listen/ivbipwdtu3fna6r/01_Better_Than_Who_.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/pt1riff4qri64iu/02_Robbing_The_Poor.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/u4k2ajwq9n5dj2k/03_Nightside.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/sqmq8sv29yna637/04_Freedom_Of_The_Snow.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/54b82uandfdktvt/05_Paper_Sea.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/ty61wc6rknp25bc/06_Bring_It_Down.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/27vma3vaqk2lqz6/07_Day_It_Fell_Apart.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/p1x2xas9xb6fil7/08_Firestorm.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/ftjf0b9lpewqmcf/09_Hello!_Remember_Us_.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/3a71gju0zb8pgpt/10_Still_Alive.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/n9c121w6lqnj8s2/11_Discards.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/98urczbn3v5esqc/12_Boss_Jones.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/listen/r39xvc7uh9109ll/13_Digwell_Carol.mp3 ....and another link to the whole album because I am less than expert at this http://www.mediafire.com/folder/dkxr51w4g4l3x/Firestorm_by_Leslie_Fish I sincerely hope you'll enjoy this and that I have contributed in a proper manner. I'll be 70 in August and my brain cell loss is alarming.
