In the comments to that file someone mentioned that it was password protected, well, it seems the Explorer utility in Windows XP generates that result when trying to extract those files. "ExtractNow" get the result of undeletable folders. <br /><br />Maybe WinRar and other extracting utilities get better results.<br /><br />I have Windows XP Service Pack 3 so at least for the Jean Ritchie file it's best to use WinZip. <br /><br />Also: Someone mentioned Bertram Levy's "That Old Gut Feeling" LP or CD. <br /><br />It's still for sale as a CD, it seems to be all-instrumental gut string banjo solos.<br /><br />http://www.countysales.com/php-bin/ecomm4/products.php?product_id=3612<br /><br /><br />http://elderly.com/also/recordings/items/BLMP3.htm<br /><br />When searching for the LP version I found another one Flying Fish that seemed to be interesting:<br /><br />http://www.gemm.com/c/search.pl?field=ARTIST+OR+TITLE&wild=Bertram+Levy&Go%21.x=17&Go%21.y=14<br /><br />Best Regards,<br />RobertVega#3noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261589983242730746.post-81322484809157333842010-07-30T12:26:18.924-07:002010-07-30T12:26:18.924-07:00To Gadaya, I.Pirate, and anon. Thanks for answerin...To Gadaya, I.Pirate, and anon. Thanks for answering my query. I thought however the issue concerned more people than me since the Jean Ritchie (2009 Archive) upload was some cause of problems according to Texas Pines and others comments there. <br /><br />It seems to be different issues for some but not all, I hear. <br />I use "ExtractNow" for rar and zip which work with all other uploads on this site and all other music blogs I've been to, that's why I thought the Jean Ritchie upload got corrupted in the first place. <br /><br />I don't think any person is responsible but sometimes different sort of systems collide with each other especially with these types of uploads. <br /><br />But I will try some other extracting program and see if the problem persists; "The folder, file can't be deleted, or moved"<br /><br />I report back when I know more.<br /><br />Please ignore or maybe delete some of my other comments regarding this issue since they may prove confusing to some.<br /><br />Best of all to you!Vega#3noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261589983242730746.post-4936666049598078752010-07-27T01:08:11.223-07:002010-07-27T01:08:11.223-07:00Thanks so much for this: I borrowed this from the ...Thanks so much for this: I borrowed this from the library back when it came out, lost the tape I made of it, and just found it today - the first LP on your website.

The .DS Store is a harmless file that Macs create to make their search function happen faster. I don't think it has anything to do with your problem. You might try downloading again, or on a different computer, or using another program to unzip the file.The Irate Piratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11424429160753219350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261589983242730746.post-66225630643244757932010-07-22T21:52:53.299-07:002010-07-22T21:52:53.299-07:00Do you happen to have that Bertram Levy lp you men...Do you happen to have that Bertram Levy lp you mentioned, "That Old Gut Feeling"?<br /><br />I don't normally make requests of you because you always post good things I didn't even know I was looking for, but you've piqued my curiosity :-)The Irate Piratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11424429160753219350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261589983242730746.post-91202685492038381672010-07-21T06:26:16.139-07:002010-07-21T06:26:16.139-07:00To Robert,

Hope you can adress this issue:<br /><br />I just downloaded this John Miller LP and as with all other uploads from this site it comes with some strange "_MACOSX Folder" with copies of all mp3s written like this: "._1.Let's Go Riding.mp3" - all files at the size of 82 Bytes!<br />Also a ".DS_Store" File in the main folder. <br /><br />Either it is your Setup or Mediafire that causes this problem. <br /><br />Also I remind you of the comment I made at 4th of May here: <br /><br />http://timesaintliketheyusedtobe.blogspot.com/2009/11/jean-ritchie-elektra-lp.html <br /><br />That download should be removed "or" Reuploaded because what is there is just "two problem folders" that can't be deleted or moved and will only cause problems for users. "Cannot be read from source"<br /><br />Thanks for listening!<br /><br />I hope you at least answer this comment, because there is no other way of knowing that you are aware of this issue and this is the only way to contact a blogger after all...<br /><br />Anonymous comments tend to be ignored all over the net, why will forever be an enigma.<br /><br />Best Regards,<br /><br />Robert.Vega#3noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261589983242730746.post-53285958383845716722010-06-27T07:30:06.181-07:002010-06-27T07:30:06.181-07:00How great is this?
