A number of years ago I would frequent the used cd section at Hastings and I scored maybe 20 various artist compilations- 70's,80's,guitar rock, Disco I wouldn't pay retail for most of them, but for $6.00 I could justify a cd with 3 good songs on it,and In some cases the original album just ain't coming.

Your daughter sounds like she has good taste. Yes, when I said that there was probably a more contemporary recording (better sound) than Bennie Goodman's original - she just looked at me and said "don't you prefer this....I do". I thought "that's my girl". Later after she left the room, I was scrolling through and trying stuff I had never heard. I ended up liking some Gwen Stefani and Christina Aguleria.

Grateful Dead, Blues for Allah In 1978ish I bought this album based completely on the cover art (I bought and read books using this patented selection method for a while as well). The store I bought it from had a huge poster of the cover in the window which I tried to beg/borrow/buy/steal. No dice. One of the employees probably still has it. It remains my favourite album/disc by this group and is said to be their finest studio album: jazz fusion meets musical talent. The Dead has put out folk, country, blues, psychidelia, pop... It took Amazon a whole 2 months to deliver this one. Did they grow the plastic for the disc first? Edit: make that jazz fusion/psychidelia meets musical talent. The title track starts off using a middle eastern musical scale in and morphs into this psychedelic romp ala early Pink Floyd. How could psychedelia not show up on anything put out by a band that regularly toured on Timothy Leary's magic bus...

I owned that album too but probably bought it in the mid 80's I think it was my last vinyl purchase before moving towards the God-awful cassette tape. Sadly non of my vinyl survived my transition to adulthood. Although it wasn't a big collection to begin with.

Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.
