Spencer's E-Rolls - MIDI Files of Piano Rolls
By Jim Crank

Sorry; but I cannot avoid not only encouraging people to send Spencer
Chase rolls to digitize, but also to comment on the high quality of
his files.  I purchased all of his player CD disks, and those Ampico
files of Peter Phillips.

All play perfectly using WindPlay and provide days and days, weeks
really, of great music to listen to.  Not one glitch in over 3500
titles.  I am using a Yamaha Clavinova digital piano (I know: hisss!)
and a laptop that has all the files arranged for classical and popular
in a dozen or so sub-files.  They play via MIDI and express just as
they should and are a great joy.

Spencer should be given all possible support, he is the only source of
these rolls on CD format that we can use.  I can hardly wait until he
gets a good supply of the Welte T-100 rolls converted, as I know what
great music they contain.
