My cheapest new purchase ever! £3 at Fopp. And why have we heard so little of Ted Brown?

I got mine at 4.99€ which also seems to be a great deal!

Fopp is great for £3 to £5 specials. Really miss the Bath store, where you could pick up much of the Blue Note/Capitol catalogue and CBS/Sony stuff for £5. Got some truly great deals there. At least the Bristol store up by the University is still operating and doing the £3 deals. Not quite as accessible for me though. :(

I haven't bothered with Fopp in Manchester recently - not since they were "HMV-ised". HMV's promise of allowing them to trade as before seems to have crumbled and the jazz stock has now been reduced to the pathetic collection you can find in their owner's store up the road. :(

The prices are much better though! At the FOPP in Covent Garden I picked up 'Lady Day: The Complete Billie Holiday on Columbia' for 10 pounds and Sonny Rollins 'Road Shows Vol. 1' for 3 pounds.

OK. Point taken! :)

Thank you, Bill!

It was your posting of the 'Only the Blues' album (on as I type) that sent me in search to Fresh Sound.

I know some feel listing albums listened to is pointless but I find it an endless source of interest, alerting me to things I'd otherwise miss.
