That's disappointing - every one of them came up with a "404 Not Found" error

But - do try this one. I've just been playing along. They've got blues, jazz, pop.

Yeah, I saw that a while ago. I googled it and found a thread where someone had taken his backing tracks and is selling them. Big long story and he took them down and he's gonna sell them himself.
I wish I had downloaded more. I have 6 of them. all very nice.

All I get when I download with "save-as" is a 1KB aif file.

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.

It is not an AIFF file, it is the text with the error message (if you try to open the file, you will see html code). Links are broken.

Hey all,
I have most all Lawrence Fritts files and I uploaded them here for your pleasure.
"please not these were all freely available from his site but the links no longer seem to be working"

Thanks Keith. I took a copy of all of 'em. Did you download all of them and convert to mp3, or did you get them from the site that way? I only remember the massive files before. These are all like under 10 MB.
