I've just had to waste my time deleting stupid crap ... don't even think about making me do it again.

And don't respond to this posting or I'll simply close the thread. You can of course continue the thread.

Also google and yahoo and even hotmail spaces gives you web space (free) to develop your own site. You don't need to create a page you can store files there and link to them. And most often your own isp gives you space for a page.
I'm sure there are many more free ones those are just some of the ones I have used.
I sometimes have trouble downloading from some of the sites like http://box.net/
http://www.4shared.com/

I especially like BoxNet & 4Shared because the links they provide take the visitor directly to a window which allows easily selecting either 'direct playback' or 'D/L' the song. I personally prefer Boxnet because I experience little/no delay for direct play. Here are 2 member produced songs posted, and how they appear via BoxNet & 4Shared:

Whitchata Lineman, recorded on Yamaha Tyros2 by Craig Eyre

What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Live, performed on Yamaha S900 by Ian Mac Neill

If you become a member at http://www.createsongstyles.com/index.php, they can easily host audio files (or anything else) on the site, no download limits or time out periods.

I find it an excellent resource, and is platform agnostic, meaning it doesn't care WHAT type of arranger you've got...

Scott, interesting that you'd post Ian's arrangement of "what are you doing .......". It's one of my favorite songs and one that I've spent years trying to get just the right interpretation for. I currently like the (if you can believe it) Dusty Springfield version, but I've heard some nice interpretations from stylist like Carmen McRea and Shirly Horn.

Don't know why I posted this, I just really like that song. Just proves (for ME) how much better songwriting was in the 'old days'.

I must agree with you Chas...Dusty Springfield's rendition does it for me, too.

Shirley Horn's rendition is tops in my book too. Man, do I MISS her. btw: she's another legend that I had the lucky opportunity to see in a small intimate concert venue, sitting 2 feet away from her, and then had the got to spend some time chatting with after her show too. I'll never forget her unassuming manner, especially the way she simply walked on stage with her big red purse under arm, placing in on top of the piano before sitting down to play. That all said, I really enjoy Ian's fine rendition of this classic tune as well. I myself usually do this song for New Year Eve Gigs, simply altering the lyric to: "What Are You Doing The Rest of The Year". - Scott
