Welcome to Vassar Clements'
Official Website
AUGUST 16, 2005
Dear Friends,
On August 16th 2005 at 8:35 am Nashville time, the angels in heaven stopped
singing for a moment, as they heard the most beautiful music approaching
from a distance - the high lonesome sound of Vassar Clements' fiddle.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of this truly wonderful and beautiful
man whose purpose in life on Earth was in spreading love and happiness to
people, both through his music and through his generosity and light of
spirit.
Vassar indeed has touched the lives of so many of us, and we can all count
ourselves as blessed to have been witness to the musical genius and
kind-hearted nature of this great yet humble man.
It is a great testament to a life when those whose paths you crossed hold
you up as an example on how to treat others. Vassar's guestbook is that
testament and shows how incredibly loved and admired Vassar was on this
Earth by both those who knew him personally and those who knew him only
through his music.
I would like to thank Vassar's daughter Midge and son-in-law George on
behalf of all of us that loved Vassar for the great love and care they have
shown him since the passing of his wife Millie just over seven years ago.
Selfless and devoted, they not only took care of Vassar emotionally and
physically, but also jumped in and learned the music business so Vassar
could continue to play for all of us around the country.
I picture Vassar and Millie in heaven, reunited in the love they shared that
transcends all things, him playing while she dances.
Thank You Vassar - God Bless You. Rest In Peace.

They seem to be mics designed for stealth use. They should be alright
for that.
For actual professional work nothing can beat a good pair of condenser
mics, that now can be got in mated pairs from many vendors in the USA,
coming from Russia, China and other countries.
It will all depend on how much you want to spend, where are you going
to record it with (DAT, MD, etc.) and the interface you are going to
use (mixer or preamp). Most condensers need a supply, that on some
cases come with the stereo pair.
Will this be a fully professional application or just for your use? If
it's the latter you can give a try on those Squid.

I had a pair for a while, but sold them onwards pretty quickly - they're ok but
for a little more you can get a considerably better mic (Marantz EM-8, Sony ECM-
xyz) IMHO.

I have a tascam da-20 that i've only put a little use
on in the last few years, since buying it used with a
few 2-3 hundred hours on it. If anyone is interested
in picking this up, that would be great.
I also have a couple hundred phish, moe., dead, and
string cheese dats that I want to get rid of. My list
is at phishhook.com/lists/thomasr22 I have most of the
tapes on the list, but i'd really like to get rid of
the whole bunch together. I'd like to either sell the
tapes (as blanks) or trade them all for something.
I'm interested in some nice canal/earphones like the
sures, etymotics, westinghouse or the ultimate ears.
So if anyone wants to trade some or all of the tapes
and deck for some phones, let me know! thanks!
