Fred Jacobowitz asked the following, quoting bits of
previous notes. I brought this up originally; I'll
tell you why I did. These John Stump pieces of music
are are posted on the wall of the music store I work
at. They are hilarious. They are far, far beyond
playable; they are jokes. I can stare at the Fairies
Dance for minutes smiling to myself. As others have
said, a search on the web will bring up copies of
copies, of very poor quality. I am tempted to send
$36 to the person noted below who claims to have
permission to publish legitimate good copies. Tom
Hall, the person below, has suggested that John Stump
lives somewhere in the Las Angeles area. More than
that, I don't know.
