  1. it looks like this latest coupon is only good for in-store purchases. given their dismal jazz stock, i only use coupons that can be used on borders.com. :(

    Not just jazz stock. At the downtown Border's in Portland, there's almost nothing left of any genre. It looks to me like they're getting out of the CD business entirely and that this sale is a way of moving their remaining stock out the door in a hurry. So be it. I did pick up the Weather Report CD/DVD combo called Forecast Tomorrow for under $30.00 with the coupon which seems like a pretty good deal. That will very likely be the last CD I ever buy from them.

    Up over and out.

    The Weather Report CD/DVD box set is available thru Amazon for about $30

    Amazon - weather report box set

  2. Deepdiscount also lists some of the big box Mosaics;

    Ellington

    Chu Berry $85

    Quincy Jones $65

    Columbia Small Group box

    Lou Donaldson

    Also some BEAR FAMILY box sets are discounted.

    The DVD sale was 25% this year. Maybe sales are slow all over the place. (Mosaic included)

  4. Adam Dunn traded to the Diamondbacks! I guess they felt they had to do something to try to counteract the Manny trade, but he ain't no Manny. Perhaps having the lowly, sickly braves take 3 of 4 had something to do with it....

    Yeah, he might not be Manny, but he's better than Andruw Jones? The Dodgers don't have a closer (he's hurt). And are wasting a spot with Andruw Jones. Then they can't think, so the guys get throw out running bases. The Dodger will finish at .500. Diamondbacks should be alittle better than .500, with or without Adam Dunn. Course, we can always root for Colorado to win their last 21 games and pass everybody up.

  5. Chase's "Get It On" did not sound all that unusual on AM radio when it was released, as I recall. It was a time when just about anything could become a hit. Pop radio was not segmented like it is today. Soul classics and rock and roll songs, bubble gum and light pop, country crossover and even an occasional jazz song, were all mixed together on the charts played by every radio station in the U.S.

    I think that Chase gained some benefit there from the hit singles of Blood Sweat & Tears and Chicago in the two years or so before.

    I think there was a group call LIGHTHOUSE too. Can't remember their hit.
