Welcome!
We created this site to maintain an archive of "bootlegged" Jill Sobule performances, Interviews, and whatever else seems to fit. There are basically three kinds of content here:
| Bootleg recordings are made using microphones or video cameras placed (clandestinely or otherwise) in the audience. They vary in sound quality, but can give you a good sense of actually being at the show. Bootlegs have always been made with Jill's permission, and she has in fact encouraged us to put up this site. | |
| Live/Sound Board recordings are similar to bootlegs, but they have been recorded by connecting directly to the sound board at a show (with both Jill's and the Sound Person's permission). They sound a little closer to live recordings one might find on a live album, in that the audio quality is usually quite good, but they can miss some of the quality of the live experience, since the audience is not miked, and therefore you don't get to hear a lot of their applause, laughter, etc. | |
| Off Air recordings are taken from radio and TV shows where Jill has appeared. Sometimes these are performances, sometimes they are interviews, and sometimes they are a combination of things. Sometimes they are something else entirely. The quality of these vary somewhat, depending on the quality of the reception available to the person who did the recording, plus the quality of their recording equipment. While Jill has never objected to these recordings, technically some of these are copyrighted broadcasts and are included here without the express permission of the copyright holders. If anyone representing the producers or owners of these shows contacts us requesting that we remove any such content, we will of course comply. |
We accept content from all who have something they wish to contribute. Please click on the "Submit Content" link in the panel at the bottom of the screen for information on how to get your recordings on JillMedia.com.
