Daniel A Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 "Someone" in this case is my 7 month old daughter. Since she's all over the place now I had thought of moving the lower shelves of my CD collection (the letter 'M' happens to be within her reach) and I had already removed the other McLean and Mobley JRVG:s, but yesterday it turned out that I missed 'Capuchin Swing'. Also, Lee Morgan's Live at the Lighthouse box now looks slightly dissolved. No big deal, the CD is not affected, just the cover which looks "eaten". It will serve as a nice memory of this exciting phase in her life. I think I might have gotten this from J.A.W. many years ago, and as it happens he is now offering the BN Works version of this title, so maybe I should get that one instead. After all, the JRVG sounds like AM radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 actually, I know that J.A.W will take returns at any time. Just don't tell him about that kid thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin V Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 I am fostering a one-year-old puppy that I'll likely adopt permanently. After he destroyed a library book, I'm worried about my CD collection. I wouldn't put it past him to pull a CD off of a shelf and eat it.

AfricaBrass Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Hi Daniel! I have a few things that were modified/damaged by my son when he was really little. Back then, when the damage was done, I was upset, but when I see them now, I actually appreciate and cherish them because it reminds me of that time in his life.

king ubu Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 also, deep in forum history (on the verge of turning into mythology by now), there's story about an Andrew Hill Mosaic box that got lost whilst having been in use as a drawing board for kids in the car... or some such Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) also, deep in forum history (on the verge of turning into mythology by now), there's story about an Andrew Hill Mosaic box that got lost whilst having been in use as a drawing board for kids in the car... or some such I remember the story but I didn't remember that that was you! For shame, for shame! I've got a few cat scratched LP spines in the Who section from a cat that died over 10 years ago so it's kind of nice to be reminded what a sweet little Attila The Hun she was. It's healthier to love the people & pets more than the music packaging. That said, I have wrapped the Glenn Gould Original Jacket box in protective plastic and am storing it where the current kitty can't get to it. Last year I could see she was eyeing it as a potential scratching post or at least a place to rub her chin.

Daniel A Posted March 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 After all, the JRVG sounds like AM radio. Wasn't this Fickle Sonance Rather than Capuchin Swing? Bertrand. Yes, you're right of course. However, the Capuchin Swing JRVG sounds a bit obtrusive. Jeff and others - thanks for your ecouragement! My disappointemnet did only last a few seconds and I'm certainly looking at it from the humorous side. What's funny is that she's almost always going for the McLean albums. The the nearby Mobleys are of no interest at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 years ago I had a cat who peed on a Cannonball Adderly LP. And it was one of the good ones (a Riverside). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait until she grows up a little and starts to assimilate Mobley's subtilities Actually, when I'm playing something on the stereo I try to observe if she takes any notice and how she reacts. Clearly she's responding more to certain music. A few days ago I played the Mingus LP "Let My Children Hear Music" and she was positively excited. I suppose she likes Charles McPherson.
