Words from the Artist / Introduction
------------------------------------
- Hi.
  First of all, thank you for downloading my Music Disk. However,
  in a few minutes, after you listen to the music, you will thank me,
  for giving you the best music you have ever heard - for free! ;-)
  * * *
- Welcome to ALBUM-3 - also known as "Background"...
  for trackers/people in the PC-MUSIC-Scene, the technique is obvious
  but the style is new and never made before.
  For those who never heard such music composing before -
  notice that ALL of what you are going to hear, was home made,
  without any recording studios or whatsoever.
- The main idea, is to BREAK the image of PC-Music. This was made on
  a PC indeed, But it has no relation to "PC-Music-Style" such as annoying
  Chip-Music etc.. Its an High-Quality music for any kind of listeners
  worldwide..
- I've been making music ("Tracking") for Five Years now.
  I've started to work on this album about a year ago, though most
  of the tunes created at the last 3 months.
- If you like the Disk, you might want to hear some of my older tunes.
  There are available at my Site. (see contact info below)

----------
ALBUM3.EXE
----------
- This is the Album Player-Shell i wrote. Its a small text mode program
  which gives you all the tracks, and let you play tracks by pressing
  the song number. [1-0] (0 is song #10)
  I also included an option which plays the WHOLE album track after track
  without looping each track, so you can play it all like a CD-Player.
  Press [=] to play the whole album.
  Notice that if you want to play the Whole-Album-Play-Order, you should
  press ESC until you go back to the main menu.
 *Note that Liquid-Tracker does NOT working under Windows 95's DOS Window,
  but yet, album3.exe will still run for a case that higher versions of
  Liquid-Tracker will run under Windows 95.
  The version that comes with this Music Disk is 1.30.
  ALBUM3.EXE needs LIQ.EXE to run, you can place it anywhere in your path,
  or at the directory where the music disk is located.

Samples/Instruments: (Other trackers, read this!)
-------------------
- Every tune uses various samples. I take those samples from a hugh
  sample libary i collect for years; some of them were recorded by me,
  some of them from various CD's and some are "ripped" from another
  songs.
  I see no reason to 'thank' each sample recorders for few reasons:
 -1- People move samples from song to song, and it is hard to find
     out which was the one to records it.
 -2- If i for example record a very good high quality piano sample, and
     other person uses this sample to make his modules, he does not need
     to thank me, as well as i don't thank the company which made my piano
     each time i play it =)
 -3- Many of the "original" recorded samples are from CDs, or a synth; 
     again,no recorded should ask for "legal rights" for those.
 -4- As far as i see it, the only samples which are "original" for me,
     and should not be used in others' songs, are VOCAL samples of the
     guy who made the song, and Pre-Played parts. (mostly guitars)
     If those samples are used for any kind of REMIX of the existing tune,
     the original 'singer' should get the creadit, and probably give
     his premission for the whole remix production.
