[78-L] Sephardic music website

[Peter Fraissinet]

Joel,

I've enjoyed perusing your new site, and happy to see so many label 
scans!  (Some of them look awfully familiar...)  The paper material 
you've accumulated and scanned is impressive as well.  You once gave 
me a basic education on the Sephardim and their migrations, and here 
it is in living pixels!

This site is a good example of how a web publication is actually more 
useful and more navigable than a book, or maybe better put:  you have 
used the capabilities of the web to full advantage.  All the internal 
links to quickly navigate to and from what would be footnotes or 
different sections of the site allow the user to not have to back up 
and potentially get lost.  I appreciate that.  Neither is the site 
full of annoying java bells and whistles, and typefaces that are 
under 4 points in size, so common on "cool" music websites.  I 
appreciate that too.  Simple yet elegant.

Perhaps the map on the home page should be a tad bigger to read its 
labels though.

Peter
