I am bringing this topic back into circulation for the benefit of the newcomeres around here who never saw it before
The oppoprtunity to do this arose today because I wanted to refer to the track list section of the one time on-line
Rhino Songbook liner notes that are no longer linked from the Rhino Songbook page
I had previously found them thanks to the wonderful "wayback machine" at"-
http://www.archive.org/web/web.php
where you can copy in the address of most old sites or pages and find an series of archived copies going back several years
The original topic had as its subject
Topic: "Lghtfoot" Album Liner Notes
(please excuse the typo there!!!)
and its URL was:-
http://www.corfid.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/001699.html
which still fortuitiously successfully opens that topic but trying to reply to that now brings up a "search error" screen
because Florian's recent revamp of this forum evidently included revised page addresses for each topic
the new address for this topic to which I am now replying is (as you should be able to see from your own browser address bar above) is:-
http://www.corfid.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ul...c;f=1;t=001699
a subtle but vital difference!!
I have checked the "notlong" links that I devised earlier and found that of the 6 only 5 still functioned so I have devised
a new link for the sixth of course it had to be the very one I wanted to refer to!!
for posterity therefore the complete list of archived pages with a brief descriptions are:-
a new link for the main original rhino songbook page
http://rhinosongbook.notlong.com/
or my earlier one that does still link OK
page1 main rhino page http://www.rhino.notlong.com
pages 2 through 6
Page 2 Producer's Notes http://www.thane.notlong.com
Page 3 A Word from Gord http://www.gordword.notlong.com
page 4 Master Craftsman http://www.mastercraftsman.notlong.com
Page5 Gord Speaks Out http://www.gordspeaks.notlong.com
and finally the section I was trying to find that led me to refinding this topic:-
Page6. Track Notes http://www.tracknotes.notlong.com
that link no longer functions so I made a new one that does:-
http://tracknotes2.notlong.com
I will in due course be making up a dummy "rhino" page for my Lightfoot webring and will then put those links on it
