The music Gopher server is down, probably for good. Should we get a
machine capable of handling all of the requests, it may be
re-instated.

How to link your Gopher server to point at the Music Archives.

Here is an overview of the music area. All of these can be pointed to
via the path /pub/music

The areas marked with a "*" have been linked into the artists
directory. Almost all information (99%) contained in those areas can be
accessed via artist name. (The rest is being linked as time permits.)

/pub/music/
  artists/              =  Artists- Archives by Artist name
  classical/            =  Classical Buying Guide
  composition/          -  Articles about Music Composition
  database/             =  Music Database program
  faqs/                 =  Frequently Asked Questions files
  folk/                 =  Folk Music Files and pointers
* guitar/               =  Guitar TAB files from ftp.nevada.edu
  info/                 =  rec.music.info newsgroup archives
* interviews/           =  Interviews with musicians/groups
  kurzweil/             =  Kurzweil K2000 Archives
* lists/                =  Mailing lists archives

  midi/                 -  Some midi files
  misc/                 -  Misc files that don't fit anywhere else
* pictures/             =  GIFS, JPEGs, PBMs and more.
* press/                =  Press Releases and misc articles
  programs/             -  Misc music-related programs for various machines
  releases/             =  USA release listings (now info/releases)
* reviews/              =  rec.music.reviews archives
  sounds/               =  Short sound samples
  uap/                  -  Usenet Artist Polls

We would prefer that if you wish to use the archives via Gopher that
you point to the /pub/music directory for full coverage.

Next best for users is a link to the "artists" directory which contains
most of the archive information.

Here is a Gopher Link file:

Name=Music Archives
Type=1
Port=70
Path=/pub/music
Host=gopher.uwp.edu

Please do NOT use the music archives in Gopher training
demonstrations.  When too many users simultaneously access the server,
it kills our machine....
