[78-L] Request.

[Taylor Bowie]

Although it comes in the form of sad news,  I'm grateful to be able to read 
the obits and thank those of you who alert the rest of us to the passings of 
musicians and people from the world of sound preservation.

Sometimes the poster assumes that the rest of us already know the person in 
question.  Often,  I don't (esp. collectors and academics)  and would 
respectfully ask that when someone posts an obit that they tell us a little 
bit about that person and what they had done during their life.

Thanks from

Taylor
