Thanks untuk Multiply, salah satu tempat nongkrong asik buat hobiku ngumpulin lagu (MP3) berikut info dan terutama masyarakat yg satu selera. Lewat portal umum yg kumulai secara terlambat yakni tahun 2007 serta berumur singkat karena sejak 2010 gak aktif lagi, hanya 3 tahun tapi banyak hal berkesan. Diantaranya, koleksi MP3 yg telah kumuat (upload) berjumlah 700an lebih judul album yg dapat di ambil (download) oleh kalangan terbatas. Sebaliknya aku sudah mendapat banyak lagu termasuk album langka, kebanyakan "out of print" alias sudah tidak diproduksi lagi, biasanya dikonversi dari Piringan Hitam menjadi MP3 kemudian di upload ke Multiply masing2. Dan bukan hanya lagu, melainkan tukar menukar info, kisah termasuk cara mencari rekan baru untuk sebuah lagu yg spesifik dan langka. Bagi yg sepaham, bisa kebayang mendapat harta karun seluruh album Gentle Giant, Michael Quatro, Stomu Yamashta, Tangerine Dream yg seabreg maupun Eberhard Schoener nan selektif?
Thanks untuk Emiko "Emimyst" Miyashita di Tokyo, yg pernah memberikan lagu berjudul "Smile" milik The New Minstrels, bukan "Monserat" seperti tertulis pada sampul kaset Nada Dan Improvisasi tahun 1981 dgn instrumental berjudul "Senyum". Dari lagu inilah lantas jadi ide awalku buat mengumpulkan semua materi album kaset The Best Of Jazz Vocal produksi Aquarius tahun 1980, langsung dimulai. Beberapa lagu memang sudah pernah kukoleksi dalam format MP3, saat itu yg langka dan lama kucari adalah Silky (David Gates, album Falling In Love Again - 1979) dan What You Want Do For Love (Peabo Bryson, album We're the Best of Friends - 1979). Namun yg tersulit sekaligus paling akhir kudapat untuk menjadi kumplit adalah lagu Steal Away (Jim Photoglo, album Photoglo - 1980) kemudian yg berjudul I Need Your Love (Lonnie Smith, album Gotcha - 1978), sumbernya dari beberapa teman Multiply di Eropah khususnya yg berdomisili di Belanda.

What a superb collection of Jim's old stuff, "Steal Away". Jim Photoglo had some solo success in the late 1970s then he joined in the touring bands of Vince Gill, Andy Gibb, also Dan Fogelberg to name a few.
