IKEA seems to be all over the place for CD (and vinyl) storage shelves. But it really seems they do not keep any of them available nearly long enough. And what you all have mentioned here matches none of the two different systems for CD storage I've bought at IKEA in the past. (Will have to search for the names but cannot locate the info sheets or receipts right now.) They are used in different areas in my music room so the mismatch is no big problem. But I really regret those I bought in 1999/2000 are long-discontinued. It was a wall-mounted cupboard to hold about 350 CDs each (I bought two of them at the time) with glass doors. Smart ... Apart from that, the oft-maligned BILLY system holds up well and serves me well for storing my LPs that overflowed from my actual music room into the adjacent room where vinyls are gradually taking over now ...

Been to Rome twice, never to a record store. No personal experience but this one popped up on a search and looks pretty good: https://www.millerecords.it/en/

Welcome to the boards! I'm not sure but a couple of ideas on what you're searching for (please excuse if these are way off the mark): First track, Daphne: Second possibility: First track, Minor Swing:

I can't be of any help, I haven't visited a shop in Roma since 1971.

Right now another of the new releases from Resonance Records, Joe Henderson “Consonance: Live at the Jazz Showcase” 2 cd set, disc 1 185×185 8.17 KB

No one?

Great band on this one... Steve Davis, Eddie Henderson, Jeff "Tain" Watts, Eric Alexander and Orrin Evans.

👍

Thanks to everyone for the links, references and analyses. Very helpful. Too bad Tom Johnson died in 2025; he would have been a great source.

32 Jazz CD reissue of a Muse title

Tremendous.

Dave Douglas: Transcend

I was a fan of Mason with Traffic and his "Alone Together" and "Live" albums got a lot of play. RIP Dave.

On to another new arrival from dustygroove–“Louis Armstrong & His All Stars – In Concert Falkoner Centret January 1959” Steeplechase cd This is a great sounding mellow All-Stars recording.

👍

I’m starting the day off with Benny Goodman “Different Version Vols 1 & 2 – 40 Alternate Takes Of Recordings 1939 to 1940” Phontastic 2 cd set, disc 1. Got this from dustygroove.com really inexpensive, and the sound is excellent. This band was so very “on” at this time.

George Crater – Out Of My Head

Just noticed this at DG and CDJapan. Recorded live on August 12, 1973 at Henny Onstad Center for The Arts, which is in Norway. Tunes include "Open to Love" and "Alone, Again". Carol Goss, Paul's wife/companion, illustrated the front cover.
