Happily Plagiarized
At that point something deep down in my brain rang the deja-vu bell.
In browsing back through some of my old posts, I came upon a quick posting I did about a year ago recommending Andrew Shapiro's 'Mint Green' to the solo-piano appreciating public.
After listening to the track again (which is no less amazing, by the way, you should totally get it right now), I visited Andrew's site again and noticed a little "Mint Green. Get it." call-out link that looked very nice.
Then, I thought, the typography was a little off. Why have "it" wrap to the second line? It feels just a little awkward and leaves some unbalanced white space at the bottom right of the box.
At that point something deep down in my brain rang the deja-vu bell. I'd had that exact thought before. On my site. When I originally wrote the blog post recommending the piece.
A moment later I realized that my little blockquote call-out link graphic had been screen-captured and used on the artists' site as the primary link to download this track! I've never been so happily plagiarized.
And Andrew, if you're reading, can I get a signed copy of the album? I'll pay the postage :)
